GLYCOL ETHERS
Glycol Ethers are a class of chemical compounds consisting of alkyl ethers that are based on glycols such as ethylene glycol or propylene glycol.
Glycol Ethers are commonly used as solvents in paints and cleaners.
Glycol Ethers have good solvent properties while having higher boiling points than the lower-molecular-weight ethers and alcohols.

Glycol Ethers are designated "E-series" for or "P-series" for those made from ethylene oxide or propylene oxide, respectively.
Typically, E-series Glycol Ethers are found in pharmaceuticals, sunscreens, cosmetics, inks, dyes and water-based paints, while P-series Glycol Ethers are used in degreasers, cleaners, aerosol paints and adhesives.

Both E- and P-series Glycol Ethers can be used as intermediates that undergo further chemical reactions, producing glycol diethers and glycol ether acetates.

Glycol Ethers are an invaluable solution for industries
But Glycol Ethers are also part of everyday life.
Uses range from pharmaceuticals and micro-electronics to domestic cleaning, personal care and printing.

*E-series Glycol Ethers
Commercial E-series Glycol Ethers consist mainly of methyl, ethyl and butyl Glycol Ethers.

Depending on the number of ethylene oxide repetitive units there are mono-, di- and triethylene Glycol Ethers.
The ethylene oxide building block provides a high compatibility with water to these compounds.
Their use in water-based coatings is an example how this property can be used.

Glycol Ethers act as solvents and as coalescing aids and coupling solvents in paint formulations.
Their coalescing aid property is essential for high quality film formation in water-based paints, while the solvents power of the materials is needed e.g. in cleaning applications.

The higher molecular weight E-series Glycol Ethers (triethylene Glycol Ethers or higher homologues) are also used in hydraulic brake fluids.
E-series Glycol Ethers are also used as intermediates and undergo further chemical reactions e.g. to esters.

*P-series Glycol Ethers
Propylene Glycol Ethers are high-performance industrial solvents.
P-series Glycol Ethers are based on reacting propylene oxide with varying chain alcohols.

Glycol Ethers are used for paints and coatings, cleaners, inks, and a variety of other applications.
In coating applications P-series Glycol Ethers provide good solvency for a wide variety of resins including acrylic, epoxies, alkyds, polyesters, nitrocellulose and polyurethanes.

For cleaners they provide low toxicity, surface tension reduction, and provides good solvency for polar and nonpolar materials.
As a chemical intermediate, P-series Glycol Ethers can be used in combination with other Glycol Ethers or solvents to custom tailor properties to meet the full requirements of the formulation.

In the electronics industry, P-series Glycol Ethers are also used in conjunction with other solvents in the manufacture of laminates and in semiconductor processes which are used to make circuit boards.
Other significant applications are agricultural, cosmetic, ink, textile and adhesives products.

Glycol Ethers are colorless and flammable polar liquids that can be readily miscible with alcohol, liquid esters, ether, acetone, and water.
Glycol Ethers can dissolve many oils, resins, and waxes.

Glycol Ethers, with both an ether and alcohol functional group in the same molecule, are one of the most versatile classes of organic solvents.
The product line consists of more than 10 distinct chemicals.

Glycol Ether products are produced through continuous processes of selectively reacting an alcohol and ethylene oxide.
Glycol Ethers, as a class of chemicals having longer hydrocarbon-like alkoxide groups, display solubility more characteristic of hydrocarbons.
Thus, Glycol Ethers produced from higher molecular weight alcohols, such as some solvent, have limited water solubility.
The ether groups introduce additional sites for hydrogen bonding with improved hydrophilic solubility performance.

APPLICATIONS
Solvency Properties

*Cosolvents for waterborne industrial coating systems
*Fuel System Icing Inhibitor (FSII)
*Freeze-thaw agents in aqueous systems
*Chemical reaction solvents
*Chemical Intermediates

They are also useful chemical intermediates.
Glycol Ethers will undergo many of the same reactions as alcohols because they contain the hydroxyl (-OH) functional group.
Some typical examples are:

*Reaction with carboxylic acids, carboxylic acid chlorides, anhydrides and inorganic acids to produce esters
*Reaction with organic halides to produce ethers, such as glymes
*Reaction with alkenes and alkynes to produce ethers
*Reaction with halogenating agents to produce alkoxy alkyl halides
*Reaction with epoxides to produce polyether alcohols
*Reaction with aldehydes and ketones to produce hemiacetals and acetals

Odor and Appearance: "Glycol Ethers" is a name for a large group of chemicals.
Most Glycol Ethers compounds are clear, colorless liquids

A glycol ether (GE) is a compound similar to a glycol.
However, unlike glycols, Glycol Ethers possess one or more hydrocarbon chains attached to the hydroxyl group.
Glycol Ethers are often used for their solvent properties in paint, cleaning products, and cosmetics.
Although rapidly absorbed, the bioavailability of these compounds is variable.

Glycol Ethers (GE) are a group of compounds used for their solvent properties and are produced from either ethylene oxide (E-series) or propylene oxide (P-Series).
Unlike their parent compounds, Glycol Ethers have two different hydrocarbon substituents attached to the oxygen molecule, one of which carries a hydroxyl group.
The distinction between the two groups is essential to their industrial application.

Upon metabolism, a glycol ether (GE) is broken down to its respective acetoacetates or organic acids, which mediates the pathogenesis.
This section separates the various pathological process by system.

Glycol Ethers belong to a very common group of chemical substances known as volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
This group of substances includes more than 80 derivatives used in a wide range of everyday products and solvents due to their specific amphipathic physico-chemical properties (i.e. containing both hydrophilic and hydrophobic residues).

Examples of VOCs include benzene, styrene, and toluene.
Some of them are found in products such as water-based paints, wooden floor varnishes, cleaning products, hair dyes, cosmetic products, etc.
About 30 of these substances are currently used in industrial applications.

Glycol Ethers can be divided into two chemical subtypes:
-the ethylene series (e.g. ethylene glycol butyl ether or EGBE, diethylene glycol butyl ether or DEGBE)
-the propylene series (e.g. propylene glycol monomethyl ether or PGME).

What are Glycol Ethers?
Glycol Ethers are a versatile group of organic liquid solvents that are soluble in water and used in a variety of industrial and domestic applications.
Glycol Ethers are highly versatile as they are biodegradable, generally not toxic and have very little odour.

Glycol Ethers are either made from ethylene oxide (known as e-series) or propylene oxide (known as p-series).
Both series provide good long-term stability and shelf-life of products, improvements to water-based products wetting properties and can work at dilute concentrations.

How are they produced?
Glycol Ethers are produced by reacting ethylene oxide (for the e-series) or propylene oxide (for the p-series) with an alcohol such as methanol, ethanol, propanol, butanol or hexanol.
This process is carried out under adiabatic and isothermal conditions meaning it does not change the heat of the surroundings.

What are Glycol Ethers used for?
Glycol Ethers started to be used in different applications during the 1930s but during the sixties and seventies, the range of its applications expanded even further including the usage in surface coatings.
Without Glycol Ethers, many water-based coatings such as decorative consumer paints and car painting operations by manufacturers would not function.
Other important coating types and applications that use this solvent include wood, coil and anticorrosion coatings, adhesives and inks in screen printing, cleaning products, cosmetics, speciality chemical manufacture, leather goods manufacture and electronics manufacturing.

Common Types of Glycol Ethers
Butyl Glycol
Butyl glycol (BG) is an oily liquid with a unique sweet but mild odour.
In industry, it is used primarily for paint production for similar reasons to butyl di glycol as well as in printing inks.
For commercial uses, BG is used in many home cleaning products providing good cleaning power and the fresh odour we associate with these products.

Butyl Di Glycol
Butyl di glycol (BDG) is a clear, colourless organic compound that is miscible with many common solvents.
The primary use of BDG is in the coatings and paint industries where it improves the flow of the products and extends their drying time.
Glycol Ethers can also be used in stove enamels to improve the properties without impacting drying time.

Butyl Tri Glycol Ether
Butyl Tri Glycol Ether (BTGE) is a clear, colourless liquid with low volatility, strong coupling characteristics and surface tension properties.
It is primarily used as a solvent for oils, paint removers, soaps, greases as well as hydraulic oils and brake fluids.

Ethyl Di Glycol
Ethyl Di Glycol (EDF) is a colourless liquid with a characteristic odour that is miscible in water, alcohols, esters, ethers, and ketones.
It is used as a part of many brake fluids due to its low viscosity at low temperatures and a low solidification point.
As with other ester ethers it can also be used in printing inks and in cleaning agents.

Methyl Glycol
Methyl Glycol (MGL) is produced via the reaction of ethylene oxide with methanol, in water and in a high temperature and pressure environment.
MGL is primarily used to dissolve a variety of different types of chemical compounds with applications such as a solvent for resins and cellulose acetate.

Glycolic acid is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa).
Glycolic acid works by breaking down the bonds between dead skin cells on the surface of the skin, allowing them to be sloughed off more easily.

This indicates that the hydroxyl group is involved in complex formation, possibly with the loss of its proton.
Glycolic acid addresses skin issues by exfoliating dead skin cells that accumulate on the surface of the epidermis and contribute to dull, discolored, and uneven looking skin.
Glycolic acid can make the skin more sensitive in the sunlight, hence always use sunscreen and protective clothing before you step outdoors.

The process converts glycolate into glycerate without using the conventional BASS6 and PLGG1 route.
Glycolic acid works by speeding up cell turnover It helps dissolve the bonds that hold skin cells together, allowing dead skin cells to slough off more rapidly than they would on their own.
Glycolic acid also stimulates your skin to create more collagen.

Collagen is the protein that gives skin its firmness, plumpness, and elasticity.
Glycolic acid is an incredibly popular treatment because of the many benefits it has for the skin.
Glycolic acid has effective skin-renewing properties, so it is often used in anti-aging products.

Glycolic acid can help smooth fine wrinkles and improve the skin's tone and texture.
Glycolic acid is a water-soluble alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that is derived from sugar cane.
Glycolic acid is one of the most well-known and widely used alphahydroxy acids in the skincare industry.

Glycolic acid plumps the skin and helps boost hydration levels.
Glycolic acid provides far greater solubility than silicafluorides or hydrofluosilicic acid.
Electrochemical Energy Systems permits higher concentrations of acid in solution than citric acid for greater neutralizing efficiency while avoiding salting or rust discoloration problems.

Glycolic acid reaches a final pH of 5-6 more quickly than silicafluorides, especially at lower wash temperatures.
High solubility means a lower possibility of damaged fabric—even if it’s ironed while wet.
Glycolic acid fulfills many roles across a wide range of industries, thanks to its low odor and toxicity, biodegradability, phosphate-free composition, and ability to chelate metal salts.

A glycolate or glycollate is a salt or ester of Glycolic acid.
(C6H5C(=O)OCH2COOH), which they called "benzoGlycolic acid" (Benzoglykolsäure; also benzoyl Glycolic acid).
They boiled the ester for days with dilute sulfuric acid, thereby obtaining benzoic acid and Glycolic acid.

Glycolic acid can be synthesized in various ways. The predominant approaches use a catalyzed reaction of formaldehyde with synthesis gas (carbonylation of formaldehyde), for its low cost.
Glycolic acid is also prepared by the reaction of chloroacetic acid with sodium hydroxide followed by re-acidification.

Glycolic acid liquid doesn’t cake in storage and measures easily out of automatic dispensing equipment.
Once applied, Glycolic acid reacts with the upper layer of the epidermis, weakening the binding properties of the lipids that hold the dead skin cells together.
This allows the stratum corneum to be exfoliated, exposing live skin cells.

Glycolic acid is a useful intermediate for organic synthesis, in a range of reactions including: oxidation-reduction, esterification and long chain polymerization.
Other alpha-hydroxy acids include lactic acid, malic acid, tartaric acid, and citric acid.
Glycolic acid has the smallest sized molecules of all the alpha-hydroxy acids Because of these super tiny molecules, Glycolic acid can easily penetrate the skin.

This allows Glycolic acid to exfoliate the skin more effectively than other AHAs.
Glycolic acid is used as a monomer in the preparation of polyGlycolic acid and other biocompatible copolymers (e.g. PLGA).
Commercially, important derivatives include the methyl and ethyl esters which are readily distillable (boiling points 147–149 °C and 158–159 °C, respectively), unlike the parent acid.

The butyl ester (b.p. 178–186 °C) is a component of some varnishes, being desirable because it is nonvolatile and has good dissolving properties.
Many plants make Glycolic acid during photorespiration.
Glycolic acids role consumes significant amounts of energy.

Glycolic acid penetrates the skin effectively due to its small molecular size, helping to remove dead skin cells and debris from the surface.
This can lead to a smoother, brighter complexion.
The use of Glycolic acid in skincare products is associated with several benefits, including reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improving skin texture, minimizing the appearance of pores, and fading hyperpigmentation and acne scars.

The concentration of Glycolic acid in these products can vary, with higher concentrations generally being available in professional treatments.
While Glycolic acid can benefit many skin types, it may not be suitable for everyone, especially those with very sensitive or reactive skin.
In 2017 researchers announced a process that employs a novel protein to reduce energy consumption/loss and prevent plants from releasing harmful ammonia.

Other methods, not noticeably in use, include hydrogenation of oxalic acid, and hydrolysis of the cyanohydrin derived from formaldehyde.
Some of today's Glycolic acids are formic acid-free.
When using products containing Glycolic acid, it's important to use sunscreen regularly because Glycolic acid can increase skin sensitivity to the sun.

Sun protection helps prevent sunburn and further skin damage.
Glycolic acid can be found in a range of skincare products, including cleansers, toners, serums, and creams.
Glycolic acid can be isolated from natural sources, such as sugarcane, sugar beets, pineapple, cantaloupe and unripe grapes.

Glycolic acid can be used as part of an acne treatment regimen.
Glycolic acid helps to unclog pores, reduce the formation of comedones (blackheads and whiteheads), and promote the shedding of dead skin cells that can contribute to acne.
Dermatologists often use Glycolic acid in chemical peels, which are cosmetic procedures designed to improve the skin's appearance.

Glycolic acid is a simple organic compound with a hydroxyl group (-OH) and a carboxylic acid group (-COOH) on adjacent carbon atoms in its chemical structure.
This gives it its acidic properties.

Glycolic acid is an Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA).
The word acid might scare, but Glycolic acid usually comes in lower concentrations for at-home use.

Glycolic acid works as an exfoliant to turn over dead skin cells and reveal new skin cells.
Glycolic acid’s also one of the smallest AHAs, meaning that it can penetrate deeply to give the best results.
Glycolic acid can be synthesized in various ways.

The predominant approaches use a catalyzed reaction of formaldehyde with synthesis gas (carbonylation of formaldehyde), for its low cost.
Glycolic acid is also prepared by the reaction of chloroacetic acid with sodium hydroxide followed by re-acidification.
Glycolic acid can also be prepared using an enzymatic biochemical process that may require less energy.

For stronger treatments, Glycolic acid is also utilized in chemical peels available at the salon or dermatologist's office.
Light duty Glycolic acid peels up to 30% strength can be done by an esthetician at the salon or skin spa.
Other methods, not noticeably in use, include hydrogenation of oxalic acid, and hydrolysis of the cyanohydrin derived from formaldehyde.

Some of today's Glycolic acids are formic acid-free.
Stronger peels of up to 70% can be had at the dermatology office.
Skincare products contain other thoughtfully chosen ingredients to give a specific end result.

The Glycolic acid treatment you choose depends a lot on skin type and what end goals are.
Glycolic acid can be isolated from natural sources, such as sugarcane, sugar beets, pineapple, cantaloupe and unripe grapes.
Glycolic acid's essential to patch test and gradually introduce products containing Glycolic acid into your skincare routine to monitor how your skin responds.

Using low concentrations of Glycolic acid over long periods of time creates a cumulative effect; skin will look better the longer use.
For treating specific skin issues like noticeable sun damage, dark spots or acne marks, and deeper lines and wrinkles, or for marked improvement of the skin quickly, a professional peel is a good option.

But because peels deliver a higher percentage of Glycolic acid than daily use products they will be more irritating and have a greater chance of side effects.
Unfortunately, the vast majority of skincare products simply list the percentage of Glycolic acid used.
They are not required to list the pH, so it can make it difficult to compare products apples-to-apples.

Glycolic acid OTC products and professional peels have been around a long time and have a safe and effective track record.
Glycolic acid's advisable to consult with a dermatologist or skincare professional.
When choosing any Glycolic acid treatment, the percentage of Glycolic acid is just one factor.

A more acidic product will deliver a stronger and more effective treatment than a less acidic product, regardless of the percentage of Glycolic acid.
So a product containing a low percentage of Glycolic acid but with a lower (i.e. more acidic) pH will be more effective than a high percentage but low acidity product.

Glycolic acid can be used in a skincare routine: as a face wash, as a toner, and as a mask.
Glycolic acid is found in some sugar-crops.
Glycolic acid is one of the most well-known and widely used alpha-hydroxy acids in the skincare industry.

Glycolic acid is slightly stronger than acetic acid due to the electron-withdrawing power of the terminal hydroxyl group.
Glycolic acid is the smallest α-hydroxy acid (AHA).
The carboxylate group can coordinate to metal ions forming coordination complexes.

Of particular note are the complexes with Pb2+ and Cu2+ which are significantly stronger than complexes with other carboxylic acids.
This indicates that the hydroxyl group is involved in complex formation, possibly with the loss of its proton.

Glycolic acid enhances cleaning and descaling processes in oil field and petroleum refining applications.
This acid also provides metal complexing in a biodegradable form without adding undesirable biological or chemical oxygen demand to formulated products.
Glycolic acid's slower reactivity compared to mineral acids helps with acid finishing during well completion.

Desalting crude oil, well acidizing, and synthetic drilling mud also rely on Glycolic acid.
This colorless, odorless, and hygroscopic crystalline solid is highly soluble in water.
Most skin types can use them without much trouble.

These aren't quite as irritating as leaveon Glycolic acid treatments and allow skin to build up a tolerance without (hopefully) too much irritation.
While Glycolic acid is a wonderful skincare ingredient.

Glycolic acid products for home use typically have lower concentrations (usually ranging from 5% to 20%), while professional treatments may use higher concentrations (up to 70% or more).
While Glycolic acid can be highly effective, it can also cause side effects, especially if used incorrectly or at high concentrations.

Individuals with certain skin conditions, such as eczema, rosacea, or open wounds, should exercise caution when using Glycolic acid products, as it can exacerbate these conditions.
Glycolic acid's advisable to consult with a healthcare professional before use in such cases.
Before using any new skincare product containing Glycolic acid, it's a good practice to perform a patch test.

Apply a small amount of the product to a discreet area of skin (like the inner forearm) and wait to see if any adverse reactions occur before applying it to face or a larger skin area.
Results may not be immediate, and it may take several weeks to notice significant changes.

Potential side effects include redness, irritation, peeling, and dryness.
These side effects are usually temporary and can be minimized by following product instructions and using moisturizers as needed.
Glycolic acid is often combined with other skincare ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, and peptides to enhance its benefits and minimize potential irritation.

These combinations can be found in various skincare products to address specific skin concerns.
The pH level of Glycolic acid products is an important factor in their effectiveness.
Lower pH levels (more acidic) can enhance the exfoliating properties of Glycolic acid.

Many Glycolic acid products are formulated at an optimal pH to maximize their exfoliating effects.
Glycolic acid is often included in anti-aging skincare routines because it can help stimulate collagen production in the skin, leading to improved elasticity and a reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles over time.

Professional treatments are performed by dermatologists or licensed skincare professionals.
When incorporating Glycolic acid into your skincare routine, it's important to start slowly and gradually increase usage to allow the skin to acclimate.

History Of Glycolic acid:
The name "Glycolic acid" was coined in 1848 by French chemist Auguste Laurent (1807–1853).
He proposed that the amino acid glycine—which was then called glycocolle—might be the amine of a hypothetical acid, which he called "Glycolic acid" (acide glycolique).

Glycolic acid was first prepared in 1851 by German chemist Adolph Strecker (1822–1871) and Russian chemist Nikolai Nikolaevich Sokolov (1826–1877).
They produced it by treating hippuric acid with nitric acid and nitrogen dioxide to form an ester of benzoic acid and Glycolic acid (C6H5C(=O)OCH2COOH), which they called "benzoGlycolic acid" (Benzoglykolsäure; also benzoyl Glycolic acid).
They boiled the ester for days with dilute sulfuric acid, thereby obtaining benzoic acid and Glycolic acid (Glykolsäure).

Uses
Glycolic acid acts by dissolving the internal cellular cement responsible for abnormal keratinization, facilitating the sloughing of dead skin cells.
Glycolic acid is also the AHA that scientists and formulators believe has greater penetration potential largely due to its smaller molecular weight.
Glycolic acid is mildly irritating to the skin and mucous membranes if the formulation contains a high Glycolic acid concentration and/ or a low pH.

Glycolic acid proves beneficial for acne-prone skin as it helps keep pores clear of excess keratinocytes.
Glycolic acid is naturally found in sugarcane but synthetic versions are most often used in cosmetic formulations.
Glycolic acid is a useful intermediate for organic synthesis, in a range of reactions including: oxidation-reduction, esterification and long chain polymerization.

Glycolic acid is used as a monomer in the preparation of polyGlycolic acid and other biocompatible copolymers (e.g. PLGA).
Glycolic acid also improves skin hydration by enhancing moisture uptake as well as increasing the skin’s ability to bind water.
Glycolic acid is also used for diminishing the signs of age spots, as well as actinic keratosis.

However, Glycolic acid is most popularly employed in anti-aging cosmetics because of its hydrating, moisturizing, and skin-normalizing abilities, leading to a reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Commercially, important derivatives include the methyl and ethyl esters which are readily distillable (boiling points 147–149 °C and 158–159 °C, respectively), unlike the parent acid.

The butyl ester is a component of some varnishes, being desirable because it is nonvolatile and has good dissolving properties.
Glycolic acid can be used with hydrochloric or sulfamic acids to prevent iron precipitation in cleaning operations or water flooding.
Regardless of the G skin type, Glycolic acid use is associated with softer, smoother, healthier, and younger looking skin.

This occurs in the cellular cement through an activation of Glycolic acid and the skin’s own hyaluronic acid content.
Glycolic acid also effectively eliminates harmful deposits while minimizing corrosion damage to steel or copper systems.
Glycolic acid reacts more slowly and thus penetrates more deeply into formations before fully reacting.

That characteristic leads to enhanced worm holing, because Glycolic acid dissolves the equivalent amount of calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) as hydrochloric acid without the resulting corrosion.
One of the primary uses of Glycolic acid in skincare is as an exfoliant.
Glycolic acid helps remove dead skin cells from the surface of the skin, resulting in a smoother and more radiant complexion.

Glycolic acid is used to treat acne by unclogging pores, reducing the formation of comedones (blackheads and whiteheads), and promoting the shedding of dead skin cells that can contribute to acne.
In addition to over-the-counter products, dermatologists and skincare professionals often use Glycolic acid in more concentrated forms for in-office treatments like chemical peels and microdermabrasion.
These treatments can provide more immediate and dramatic results but require professional oversight.

Glycolic acid is used in the textile industry as a dyeing and tanning agent.
These peels involve the application of a higher concentration of Glycolic acid to the skin, followed by exfoliation and skin rejuvenation.

While Glycolic acid is commonly associated with facial skincare, it can also be used on other parts of the body to address issues like keratosis pilaris, rough skin on elbows and knees, and body acne.
Glycolic acid may be used to adjust the pH level of the product.
This can help optimize the effectiveness of other active ingredients.

Glycolic acid can also act as a humectant, meaning it can attract and retain moisture in the skin, which is beneficial for individuals with dry or dehydrated skin.
However, it's essential to use moisturizers alongside Glycolic acid products to prevent excessive dryness.
In industrial and household applications, Glycolic acid is sometimes used to remove stains and scale deposits, such as those caused by hard water, rust, or mineral buildup.

When using Glycolic acid-containing products in your skincare routine, be cautious about mixing them with other active ingredients, especially strong acids like salicylic acid or vitamin C.
Combining certain active ingredients can lead to skin irritation or reduce effectiveness, so it's advisable to consult with a skincare professional for guidance.
In medicine, Glycolic acid has been used in wound care products to help promote the healing of minor cuts, abrasions, and surgical incisions.

Glycolic acid can be used to manage keratosis pilaris, a common skin condition characterized by small, rough bumps on the skin, often found on the arms and thighs.
Some over-the-counter products containing Glycolic acid are used to soften and help remove calluses and corns on the feet.
In some hair care products, Glycolic acid may be included to help exfoliate the scalp, remove product buildup, and improve hair texture.

Safety Profile:
Glycolic acid can cause skin irritation, especially for individuals with sensitive skin.
This may manifest as redness, burning, itching, or stinging.
It's essential to perform a patch test before using glycolic acid products.

Glycolic acid can make the skin more sensitive to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun.
This increased sensitivity can lead to a higher risk of sunburn and skin damage.
It is crucial to use sunscreen and protective clothing when using glycolic acid products and avoid excessive sun exposure.

As an exfoliant, glycolic acid can cause dryness and peeling, especially when used in high concentrations or too frequently.
This can be managed by using moisturizers and reducing the frequency of glycolic acid application.

While rare, some individuals may be allergic or hypersensitive to glycolic acid, leading to more severe skin reactions.
In cases where high concentrations of glycolic acid are used without proper supervision or inappropriately, chemical burns can occur.
This is more common in professional treatments like chemical peels and should only be administered by trained professionals.

HISTORY OF GLYCOLIC ACID (C2H4O3):
The name "glycolic acid" was coined in 1848 by French chemist Auguste Laurent (1807–1853).
He proposed that the amino acid glycine—which was then called glycocolle—might be the amine of a hypothetical acid, which he called "glycolic acid" (acide glycolique).


Glycolic Acid (C2H4O3) was first prepared in 1851 by German chemist Adolph Strecker (1822–1871) and Russian chemist Nikolai Nikolaevich Sokolov (1826–1877).
They produced it by treating hippuric acid with nitric acid and nitrogen dioxide to form an ester of benzoic acid and glycolic acid (C6H5C(=O)OCH2COOH), which they called "benzoglycolic acid" (Benzoglykolsäure; also benzoyl glycolic acid).
They boiled the ester for days with dilute sulfuric acid, thereby obtaining benzoic acid and glycolic acid (Glykolsäure).


PREPARATION OF GLYCOLIC ACID (C2H4O3):
Glycolic Acid (C2H4O3) can be synthesized in various ways.
The predominant approaches use a catalyzed reaction of formaldehyde with synthesis gas (carbonylation of formaldehyde), for its low cost.
Glycolic Acid (C2H4O3) is also prepared by the reaction of chloroacetic acid with sodium hydroxide followed by re-acidification.

Other methods, not noticeably in use, include hydrogenation of oxalic acid, and hydrolysis of the cyanohydrin derived from formaldehyde.
Some of today's glycolic acids are formic acid-free.
Glycolic acid can be isolated from natural sources, such as sugarcane, sugar beets, pineapple, cantaloupe and unripe grapes.
Glycolic acid can also be prepared using an enzymatic biochemical process that may require less energy.


PROPERTIES OF GLYCOLIC ACID (C2H4O3):
Glycolic acid is slightly stronger than acetic acid due to the electron-withdrawing power of the terminal hydroxyl group.
The carboxylate group can coordinate to metal ions, forming coordination complexes.
Of particular note are the complexes with Pb2+ and Cu2+ which are significantly stronger than complexes with other carboxylic acids.

This indicates that the hydroxyl group is involved in complex formation, possibly with the loss of its proton.

APPLICATIONS OF GLYCOLIC ACID (C2H4O3):
Glycolic acid is used in the textile industry as a dyeing and tanning agent.

ORGANIC SYNTHESIS:
Glycolic acid is a useful intermediate for organic synthesis, in a range of reactions including: oxidation-reduction, esterification and long chain polymerization.
Glycolic Acid (C2H4O3) is used as a monomer in the preparation of polyglycolic acid and other biocompatible copolymers (e.g. PLGA).

Commercially, important derivatives include the methyl (CAS# 96-35-5) and ethyl (CAS# 623-50-7) esters which are readily distillable (boiling points 147–149 °C and 158–159 °C, respectively), unlike the parent acid.
The butyl ester (b.p. 178–186 °C) is a component of some varnishes, being desirable because it is nonvolatile and has good dissolving properties.


OCCURRENCE OF GLYCOLIC ACID (C2H4O3):
Plants produce glycolic acid during photorespiration.
Glycolic Acid (C2H4O3) is recycled by conversion to glycine within the peroxisomes and to tartronic acid semialdehyde within the chloroplasts.

Because photorespiration is a wasteful side reaction in regard to photosynthesis, much effort has been devoted to suppressing its formation.
One process converts glycolate into glycerate without using the conventional BASS6 and PLGG1 route; see glycerate pathway

One end of its structure with reactive groups such as amino and vinyl, can react with epoxy, phenolic, polyester and other synthetic resin molecules. The other end is alkoxy (such as methoxy, ethoxy etc.) or chlorine atoms which is connected with silicon. These groups can be transformed into silanol in the hydrolysis in water solution or damp air. And the formed silanol is able to react with surface hydroxyl of glass, minerals and inorganic filler. Therefore, silane coupling agent is commonly used in silicate-filled epoxy, phenolic, polyester resin and other systems. In addition, it can also be used for FRP production, in order to improve its mechanical strength and resistance to wet environment. The organic groups of the silane coupling agent are selective about the reaction of the synthetic resin. Generally, these organic groups lack sufficient reactivity with synthetic resins such as polyethylene, polypropylene and polystyrene, and thus the coupling effect for them is poor. In recent years, new varieties of silane coupling agents with better coupling for polyolefins have been developed, but are limited in cost and other properties and are not yet widely used. Silane coupling agent is also known as silane treatment agent. Its general formula is Y (CH2) nSiX3. Wherein n is an integer of 0 to 3; X is a hydrolyzable group such as chlorine, methoxy, ethoxy and acetoxy; Y is an organic functional group such as a vinyl, an amino, an epoxy group, a methacryloyloxy group and sulfydryl. Molecular formula C9H20O5Si Molecular Structure Molecular structure Fig: Molecular structure Physicochemical Properties Colorless transparent liquid; Soluble in a variety of organic solvents; Easy to hydrolysis; Able for condensation to form polysiloxanes; Easy to polymerize in the presence of overheating, light and peroxide. Uses 3-Glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane is an epoxy-functional silane, it is a clear, light straw liquid. 3-Glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane may be used as a coupling agent in polysulfide and polyurethane caulks and sealants, in mineral-filled or glass-reinforced thermosets and thermoplastics, and in glass roving size-binders. It is particularly employed as an adhesion-promoting additive in waterborne systems, e.g. improving the adhesion of acrylic latex sealants. Applications: 3-Glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane may improve dry and wet strength in cured composites reinforced with glass fiber rovings Enhance wet electrical properties of epoxy-based encapsulate and packaging materials. Eliminate the need for a separate primer in polysulfide and urethane sealants. Improve adhesion in waterborne acrylic sealants and in urethane and epoxy coatings. Application It is mainly used in unsaturated polyester composites to improve the mechanical properties, electrical properties and light transmission properties of the composites, especially to improve their performance in wet environment. In wire and cable industry, when used to treat EPDM system stuffed by pottery clay and crosslinked by peroxide, it can improve consumption factor and specific inductance captance. Used for its copolymerization with monomers like vinyl acetate and acrylic acid or methacrylic, to form the polymers widely used in coatings, adhesives and sealants, providing excellent adhesion and durability.

GLYOXALDEHYDE (GLYOXAL)
DESCRIPTION:


Glyoxaldehyde (Glyoxal) is an organic compound with the chemical formula OCHCHO.
Glyoxaldehyde (Glyoxal) is the smallest dialdehyde (a compound with two aldehyde groups).
Glyoxaldehyde (Glyoxal) is a crystalline solid, white at low temperatures and yellow near the melting point (15 °C).

CAS Number: 107-22-2
European Community (EC) Number: 203-474-9
Molecular Formula: C2H2O2



The liquid is yellow, and the vapor is green.
Pure glyoxal is not commonly encountered because glyoxal is usually handled as a 40% aqueous solution (density near 1.24 g/mL).

Glyoxaldehyde (Glyoxal) forms a series of hydrates, including oligomers.
For many purposes, these hydrated oligomers behave equivalently to glyoxal.
Glyoxaldehyde (Glyoxal) is produced industrially as a precursor to many products.


Glyoxaldehyde (Glyoxal) appears as yellow crystals melting at15 °C.
Hence often encountered as a light yellow liquid with a weak sour odor.
Vapor has a green color and burns with a violet flame.

Glyoxaldehyde (Glyoxal) is the dialdehyde that is the smallest possible and which consists of ethane having oxo groups on both carbons.
Glyoxaldehyde (Glyoxal) has a role as a pesticide, an agrochemical, an allergen and a plant growth regulator.
Glyoxaldehyde (Glyoxal) is a natural product found in Arabidopsis thaliana and Sesamum indicum with data available.







PRODUCTION OF GLYOXALDEHYDE (GLYOXAL):
Glyoxal was first prepared and named by the German-British chemist Heinrich Debus (1824–1915) by reacting ethanol with nitric acid.
Commercial glyoxal is prepared either by the gas-phase oxidation of ethylene glycol in the presence of a silver or copper catalyst (the Laporte process) or by the liquid-phase oxidation of acetaldehyde with nitric acid.

The first commercial glyoxal source was in Lamotte, France, started in 1960.
The single largest commercial source is BASF in Ludwigshafen, Germany, at around 60,000 tons per year.
Other production sites exist also in the US and China.
Commercial bulk glyoxal is made and reported as a 40% solution in water by weight (approx. 1:5 molar ratio of glyoxal to water).

LABORATORY METHODS:
Glyoxal may be synthesized in the laboratory by oxidation of acetaldehyde with selenious acid or by ozonolysis of benzene.
Anhydrous glyoxal is prepared by heating solid glyoxal hydrate(s) with phosphorus pentoxide and condensing the vapors in a cold trap.


BIOCHEMISTRY OF GLYOXALDEHYDE (GLYOXAL):
Glycation often entails the modification of the guanidine group of arginine residues with glyoxal (R = H), methylglyoxal (R = Me), and 3-deoxyglucosone, which arise from the metabolism of high-carbohydrate diets.
Thus modified, these proteins contribute to complications from diabetes.

Advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) are proteins or lipids that become glycated as the result of a high-sugar diet.
They are a bio-marker implicated in aging and the development, or worsening, of many degenerative diseases, such as diabetes, atherosclerosis, chronic kidney disease, and Alzheimer's disease.


Guanine bases in DNA can undergo non-enzymatic glycation by glyoxal to form glyoxal-guanine adducts.
These adducts may then produce DNA crosslinks.

Glycation of DNA may also lead to mutation, breaks in DNA and cytotoxicity.
In humans, glyoxal-glycated nucleotides can be repaired by the protein DJ-1 also known as Park7.

GLYOXYLIC ACİD
Glyoxylic acid is a highly reactive chemical intermediate having two functional groups: the aldehyde group and the carboxylic acid group. Strong organic acid (Ka=4.7x10-4), miscible in water & alcohol, insoluble in organic solvents. It is supplied as a 50% water solution.Glyoxylic acid is an important C2 building block for many organic molecules of industrial importance, used in the production of agrochemicals, aromas, cosmetic ingredients, pharmaceutical intermediates and polymers.Glyoxylic acid finds application in personal care as neutralizing agent, it is widely used in hair straightening products in particular (shampoos, conditioners, lotions, creams) at levels of 0.5-10%.GLYOXYLIC ACID is a carboxylic acid. Preparative hazard, nitric acid and glyoxal to produce glyoxylic acid has had explosive consequences. Carboxylic acids donate hydrogen ions if a base is present to accept them. They react in this way with all bases, both organic (for example, the amines) and inorganic. Their reactions with bases, called "neutralizations", are accompanied by the evolution of substantial amounts of heat. Neutralization between an acid and a base produces water plus a salt. Carboxylic acids with six or fewer carbon atoms are freely or moderately soluble in water; those with more than six carbons are slightly soluble in water. Soluble carboxylic acid dissociate to an extent in water to yield hydrogen ions. The pH of solutions of carboxylic acids is therefore less than 7.0. Many insoluble carboxylic acids react rapidly with aqueous solutions containing a chemical base and dissolve as the neutralization generates a soluble salt. Carboxylic acids in aqueous solution and liquid or molten carboxylic acids can react with active metals to form gaseous hydrogen and a metal salt. Such reactions occur in principle for solid carboxylic acids as well, but are slow if the solid acid remains dry. Even "insoluble" carboxylic acids may absorb enough water from the air and dissolve sufficiently in it to corrode or dissolve iron, steel, and aluminum parts and containers. Carboxylic acids, like other acids, react with cyanide salts to generate gaseous hydrogen cyanide. The reaction is slower for dry, solid carboxylic acids. Insoluble carboxylic acids react with solutions of cyanides to cause the release of gaseous hydrogen cyanide. Flammable and/or toxic gases and heat are generated by the reaction of carboxylic acids with diazo compounds, dithiocarbamates, isocyanates, mercaptans, nitrides, and sulfides. Carboxylic acids, especially in aqueous solution, also react with sulfites, nitrites, thiosulfates (to give H2S and SO3), dithionites (SO2), to generate flammable and/or toxic gases and heat. Their reaction with carbonates and bicarbonates generates a harmless gas (carbon dioxide) but still heat. Like other organic compounds, carboxylic acids can be oxidized by strong oxidizing agents and reduced by strong reducing agents. These reactions generate heat. A wide variety of products is possible. Like other acids, carboxylic acids may initiate polymerization reactions; like other acids, they often catalyze (increase the rate of) chemical reactions.Supplied as a 50% aqueous solution.

Very soluble in water; slightly soluble in ethanol, ethyl ether, and benzene.Crystals from water; melting point: 70-75 °C; obnoxious odor; strong corrosive acid; K= 4.6X10-4; deliquesces; attacks most stable metals except certain stainless steel alloys; aq soln tend to acquire a yellow tint.Metabolıc studıes usıng varıous substates ındıcated that at low levels of exposure, adverse effects of ethylene glycol on mıtochondrıa were attrıbutable to formatıon of glyoxylate & ınteractıon of thıs metabolıte wıth cıtrıc acıd cycle ıntermedıates.Trichloroethylene was metabolized by cytochrome p450 containing mixed-function oxidase systems to chloral (2,2,2-trichloroacetaldehyde), glyoxylic acid, formic acid, carbon monoxide and trichloroethylene oxide. trichloroethylene oxide was synthesized, and its breakdown products were analyzed. Under acidic aqueous conditions the primary products were glyoxylic acid and dichloroacetic acid. The primary compounds formed under neutral or basic aqueous conditions were formic acid and carbon monoxide. Trichloroethylene oxide did not form chloral in any of these or other aqueous systems, even when iron salts, ferriprotoporphyrin IX or purified cytochrome p450 was present. Ferric iron salts catalyzed the rearrangement of trichloroethylene oxide to chloral only in dichloromethane or CH3CN. A 500-fold excess of iron was required for complete conversion. A kinetic model involving the zero order oxidation of trichloroethylene to trichloroethylene oxide by cytochrome p450 and 1st-order degradation of the epoxide was used to test the hypothesis that trichloroethylene oxide was an obligate intermediate in the conversion of trichloroethylene to other metabolites. Kinetic constants for the breakdown of trichloroethylene oxide and for the oxidative metabolism of trichloroethylene to stable metabolites were used to predict epoxide concentrations required to support the obligate intermediacy of trichloroethylene oxide. The maximum levels of trichloroethylene oxide detected in systems using microsomal fractions and purified cytochrome p450 were 5- to 28-fold lower than those predicted from the model. The kinetic data and the discrepancies between the observed metabolites and trichloroethylene oxide breakdown products supported the view that the epoxide was not an obligate intermediate in the formation of chloral, and an alternative model was presented in which chlorine migration occurred in an oxygenated trichloroethylene-cytochrome p450 transition state.The complete metabolic fate of the volatile anesthetic halothane is unclear since 2-chloro-1,1-diflurorethene (CDE), a reductive halothane metabolite, is known to readily release inorganic fluoride upon oxidation by cytochrome p450. This study sought to clarify the metabolism of CDE by determining its metabolites and the roles of induced cytochrome p450 forms in its metabolism. Upon incubation of (14)C CDE with rat hepatic microsomes, two major radioactive products were found which accounted for greater than 94% of the total metabolites. These compounds were determined to be the nonhalogenated compounds, glyoxylic and glycolic acids, which were formed in a ratio of approximately 1 to 2 of glyoxylic to glycolic acid. No other radioactive metabolites could be detected. Following incubation of CDE with hepatic microsomes isolated from rats treated with cytochrome P-450 inducers, measurement of fluoride release showed that phenobarbital induced CDE metabolism to the greatest degree at high CDE levels, isoniazid was the most effective inducer at low CDE concentrations, and beta-naphthoflavone was ineffective as an inducer. These results suggest that CDE biotransformation primarily involves the generation of an epoxide intermediate, which undergoes mechanisms of decay leading to total dehalogenation of the molecule, and that this metabolism is preferentially carried out by the phenobarbital- and ethanol-inducible forms of cytochrome p450.Patıents sufferıng from prımary hyperoxalurıa show elevated plasma concn of oxalıc acıd & glyoxylıc acıd.

Preparative hazard, nitric acid and glyoxal to produce glyoxylic acid has had explosive consequences. Carboxylic acids donate hydrogen ions if a base is present to accept them. They react in this way with all bases, both organic (for example, the amines) and inorganic. Their reactions with bases, called "neutralizations", are accompanied by the evolution of substantial amounts of heat. Neutralization between an acid and a base produces water plus a salt. Carboxylic acids with six or fewer carbon atoms are freely or moderately soluble in water; those with more than six carbons are slightly soluble in water.

However, when glyoxylate, a keto acid precursor to glycine, was administered with benzoate 1 hr prior to a challenge of ammonia, protection against ammonia toxicity was less successful than with benzoate alone. At the cellular and subcellular levels, glyoxylate and benzoate each inhibited the urea cycle in isolated hepatocytes and pyruvate carboxylase in isolated mitochondria. The action of each drug was associated with depletion of aspartate content in isolated hepatocytes and reduction of pyruvate-dependent incorporation of carbon dioxide into aspartate in assays with isolated mitochondria. Depression of aspartate regeneration by inhibition of pyruvate carboxylase is a likely mechanism for impairment of urea cycle activity by both drugs. In whole animals, inhibition of pyruvate carboxylase may contribute to benzoate toxicity and the adverse influence of glyoxylate on benzoate therapy.Piridoxilate is given in cases of angina pectoris or arteritis. It is an intramolecular association of glyoxylic hemiacetal salts of pyridoxine. Glyoxylate has a membranous protective action; pyridoxine is used for the theoretical purpose of preventing oxidation of glyoxylic acid to oxalic acid. Twelve patients were observed with an active calcium oxalate lithiasis who had been taking piridoxilate for many years. Hyperoxaluria was present in all patients and decreased significantly when the drug was interrupted. Significant hyperoxaluria was also observed in volunteers after ingestion of piridoxilate (600 mg per day) or iv (200 mg).Glyoxylic acid's production and use as a cleaning agent for a variety of industrial applications, as a speciality chemical and biodegradable copolymer feedstock and as an ingredient in cosmetics may result in its release to the environment through various waste streams. Glyoxylic acid occurs as a natural constituent of plants (such as unripe fruit and young green leaves) and is a metabolite in mammalian biochemical pathways. If released to air, an estimated vapor pressure of 1 mm Hg at 25 °C indicates glyoxylic acid will exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase glyoxylic acid will be degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals; the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 29 hours. Vapor-phase glyoxylic acid degrades rapidly by direct photolysis (daytime persistence is not expected to exceed a few hours). If released to soil, glyoxylic acid is expected to have very high mobility based upon an estimated Koc of 1. The pKa of glyoxylic acid is 3.3, indicating this compound will exist primarily as an anion in moist soil surfaces and anions are expected to have very high mobility in soils. Volatilization of glyoxylic acid from moist soil or water surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process since the anion will not volatilize and the neutral species has an estimated Henry's Law constant of 3X10-9 atm-cu m/mole at 25 °C. Glyoxylic acid may volatilize from dry soil surfaces based upon its vapor pressure. If released into water, glyoxylic acid is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment based upon its estimated Koc. If released to soil or water, glyoxylic acid is expected to biodegrade. Degradation may also occur in sunlit water through direct photolysis. An estimated BCF of 3 suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low. Occupational exposure to glyoxylic acid may occur through inhalation and dermal contact with this compound at workplaces where glyoxylic acid is produced or used. Since glyoxylic acid is used in cosmetic preparation, the general population may be exposed to this compound through the use of these products.Glyoxylic Acid (GXA) is a colorless solid and a highly reactive chemical intermediate having two functional groups: an aldehyde group and a carboxylic acid group. Glyoxylic Acid is soluble in water and ethanol, slightly soluble in organic solvents like ether or benzene, and insoluble in esters aromatic solvents. Aqueous solutions of Glyoxylic Acid are transparent, colorless or light yellow liquids.Glyoxylic acid or oxoacetic acid is an organic compound. Together with acetic acid, glycolic acid, and oxalic acid, glyoxylic acid is one of the C2 carboxylic acids. It is a colourless solid that occurs naturally and is useful industrially.Although the structure of glyoxylic acid is described as having an aldehyde functional group, the aldehyde is only a minor component of the form most prevalent in some situations. Instead, it often exists as a hydrate or a cyclic dimer. For example, in the presence of water, the carbonyl rapidly converts to a geminal diol (described as the "monohydrate").The conjugate base of glyoxylic acid is known as glyoxylate and is the form that the compound exists in solution at neutral pH. Glyoxylate is the byproduct of the amidation process in biosynthesis of several amidated peptides.For the historical record, glyoxylic acid was prepared from oxalic acid electrosynthetically:[9][10] in organic synthesis, lead dioxide cathodes were applied for preparing glyoxylic acid from oxalic acid in a sulfuric acid electrolyte.Hot nitric acid can oxidize glyoxal to glyoxylic; however this reaction is highly exothermic and prone to thermal runaway. In addition, oxalic acid is the main side product.Also, ozonolysis of maleic acid is effective.Glyoxylate is an intermediate of the glyoxylate cycle, which enables organisms, such as bacteria,fungi, and plants to convert fatty acids into carbohydrates. The glyoxylate cycle is also important for induction of plant defense mechanisms in response to fungi.The glyoxylate cycle is initiated through the activity of isocitrate lyase, which converts isocitrate into glyoxylate and succinate. Research is being done to co-opt the pathway for a variety of uses such as the biosynthesis of succinate.Glyoxylate is involved in the development of hyperoxaluria, a key cause of nephrolithiasis (commonly known as kidney stones). Glyoxylate is both a substrate and inductor of sulfate anion transporter-1 (sat-1), a gene responsible for oxalate transportation, allowing it to increase sat-1 mRNA expression and as a result oxalate efflux from the cell. The increased oxalate release allows the buildup of calcium oxalate in the urine, and thus the eventual formation of kidney stones.The disruption of glyoxylate metabolism provides an additional mechanism of hyperoxaluria development. Loss of function mutations in the HOGA1 gene leads to a loss of the 4-hydroxy-2-oxoglutarate aldolase, an enzyme in the hydroxyproline to glyoxylate pathway. The glyoxylate resulting from this pathway is normally stored away to prevent oxidation to oxalate in the cytosol. The disrupted pathway, however, causes a buildup of 4-hydroxy-2-oxoglutarate which can also be transported to the cytosol and converted into glyoxylate through a different aldolase. These glyoxylate molecules can be oxidized into oxalate increasing its concentration and causing hyperoxaluria.Glyoxylic acid is one of several ketone- and aldehyde-containing carboxylic acids that together are abundant in secondary organic aerosols. In the presence of water and sunlight, glyoxylic acid can undergo photochemical oxidation. Several different reaction pathways can ensue, leading to various other carboxylic acid and aldehyde products.Glyoxylic Acid 50 is supplied as 50% water solution. It is used in personal care products as a neutralizing agent and is used for hair straightening products in particular including shampoos, conditioners, rinses, lotions and creams. It is also used in the production of agrochemicals, aromas, pharmaceutical intermediates and polymers.In the control and in the test medium with the nominal concentration of 200 mg/L (= Glyoxylic acid 100.3 mg/L) all fish survived until the end of the test and no visible abnormalities were observed at the test fish. Therefore, the 96-h NOEC and the 96-h LC0 were determined to be at least 200 (100.3 ) mg/L. The 96-h NOEC and the 96-h LC0 might even be higher than this concentration, but concentration in excess of 200 (100.3) mg/L have not been tested.The 96-h LOEC, the 96-h LC50 and the 96-h LC100 were clearly higher than 200 (100.3) mg/L. These values could no be quantified due to the absence of toxicity of Glyoxylic acid 50 % at the tested concentration.No remarkable observation were made concerniong the appearance of the test medium. It was a clear solution throught the entire test duration.Glyoxylic Acid. Acts as a neutralizing agent. It is highly reactive chemical intermediate having two functional groups: the aldehyde group and the carboxylic acid group. It is an important C2 building block for many organic molecules of industrial importance, used in the cosmetic ingredients. It finds its application in personal care and is widely used in hair straightening products in particular (shampoos, conditioners, lotions, and creams).Glyoxylic acid is used in Hopkins Cole reaction, which is used in the detection of tryptophan in proteins. It reacts with phenol to get 4-hydroxymandelic acid, which on further reaction with ammonia gives hydroxyphenylglycine, as a precursor to the drug amoxicillin. It is also used as a starting material for the preparation of 4-hydroxyphenylacetic acid, which is used to get atenolol. It is involved in the production of agrochemicals, aromas, cosmetic ingredient and pharmaceutical intermediate. It is also used in water purification and in the preservation of food. Further, it is employed as precursor in the synthesis of iron chelates. In addition to this, it serves as an intermediate of varnish material and dyes.Miscible with ethanol. Slightly miscible with ether and benzene. Immiscible with esters.Incompatible with metals, alkalies, strong oxidizing agents and strong bases.Glyoxylic acid is a 2-oxo monocarboxylic acid that is acetic acid bearing an oxo group at the alpha carbon atom. It has a role as a human metabolite, an Escherichia coli metabolite, a Saccharomyces cerevisiae metabolite and a mouse metabolite. It is a 2-oxo monocarboxylic acid and an aldehydic acid. It is a conjugate acid of a glyoxylate. Glyoxylic acid has been employed: • as reducing agent in electroless copper depositions by free-formaldehyde method[2] • in synthesis of new chelating agent, 2-(2-((2-hydroxybenzyl)amino)ethylamino)-2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)acetic acid (DCHA).

GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG
Greenbentin-SG/854/AG Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) is a non-ionic surfactant ideal for use in rinse aids. This alkoxylated alcohol is low foaming, biodegradable, offers excellent rinsing, and very good wetting. Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) is a chemical reaction in which ethylene oxide adds to a substrate. Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) is the most widely practiced alkoxylation, which involves the addition of epoxides to substrates. In the usual application, alcohols and phenols are converted into R(OC2H4)nOH where n ranges from 1 to 10. Such compounds are called Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG). Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) are often converted to related species called ethoxysulfates. Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) and ethoxysulfates are surfactants, used widely in cosmetic and other commercial products.[1] The process is of great industrial significance with more than 2,000,000 metric tons of various ethoxylates produced worldwide in 1994. Production of Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) The process was developed at the Ludwigshafen laboratories of IG Farben by Conrad Schöller and Max Wittwer during the 1930s. Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) Industrial Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) is primarily performed upon fatty alcohols in order to generate fatty Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (FAE's), which are a common form of nonionic surfactant (e.g. octaethylene glycol monododecyl ether). Such alcohols may be obtained by the hydrogenation of fatty acids from seed oils,[5] or by hydroformylation in the Shell higher olefin process.[6] The reaction proceeds by blowing ethylene oxide through the alcohol at 180 °C and under 1-2 bar of pressure, with potassium hydroxide (KOH) serving as a catalyst.[7] The process is highly exothermic (ΔH -92 kJ/mol of ethylene oxide reacted) and requires careful control to avoid a potentially disastrous thermal runaway. ROH + n C2H4O → R(OC2H4)nOH The starting materials are usually primary alcohols as they react ~10-30x faster than do secondary alcohols.[8] Typically 5-10 units of ethylene oxide are added to each alcohol,[6] however Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol) can be more prone to Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) than the starting alcohol, making the reaction difficult to control and leading to the formation of a product with varying repeat unit length (the value of n in the equation above). Better control can be afforded by the use of more sophisticated catalysts,[9] which can be used to generate narrow-range ethoxylates. Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol) are considered to be a high production volume (HPV) chemical by the US EPA.[10] Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG)/propoxylation Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) is sometimes combined with propoxylation, the analogous reaction using propylene oxide as the monomer. Both reactions are normally performed in the same reactor and may be run simultaneously to give a random polymer, or in alternation to obtain block copolymers such as poloxamers.[7] Propylene oxide is more hydrophobic than ethylene oxide and its inclusion at low levels can significantly affect the properties of the surfactant. In particular Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol) which have been 'capped' with ~1 propylene oxide unit are extensively marketed as defoamers. Ethoxysulfates Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol) are often converted to the corresponding organosulfates, which can be easily deprotonated to give anionic surfactants such as sodium laureth sulfate. Being salts, ethoxysulfates exhibit good water solubility (high HLB value). The conversion is achieved by treating Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol) with sulfur trioxide.[11] Laboratory scale synthesis may be performed using chlorosulfuric acid: R(OC2H4)nOH + SO3 → R(OC2H4)nOSO3H R(OC2H4)nOH + HSO3Cl → R(OC2H4)nOSO3H + HCl The resulting sulfate esters are neutralized to give the salt: R(OC2H4)nOSO3H + NaOH → R(OC2H4)nOSO3Na + H2O Small volumes are neutralized with alkanolamines such as triethanolamine (TEA). In 2006, 382,500 metric tons of alcohol ethoxysulfates (Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol)) were consumed in North America. Other materials Although alcohols are by far the major substrate for Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG), many nucleophiles are reactive toward ethylene oxide. Primary amines will react to give di-chain materials such as polyethoxylated tallow amine. The reaction of ammonia produces important bulk chemicals such as ethanolamine, diethanolamine, and triethanolamine. Applications of ethoxylated products Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (AE) and alcohol ethoxysulfates (Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol)) are surfactants found in products such as laundry detergents, surface cleaners, cosmetics, agricultural products, textiles, and paint. Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) As Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol) based surfactants are non-ionic they typically require longer ethoxylate chains than their sulfonated analogues in order to be water-soluble.[15] Examples synthesized on an industrial scale include octyl phenol ethoxylate, polysorbate 80 and poloxamers. Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) is commonly practiced, albeit on a much smaller scale, in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries to increase water solubility and, in the case of pharmaceuticals, circulatory half-life of non-polar organic compounds. In this application, Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) is known as "PEGylation" (polyethylene oxide is synonymous with polyethylene glycol, abbreviated as PEG). Carbon chain length is 8-18 while the ethoxylated chain is usually 3 to 12 ethylene oxides long in home products.[16][page needed] They feature both lipophilic tails, indicated by the alkyl group abbreviation, R, and relatively polar headgroups, represented by the formula (OC2H4)nOH. Alcohol ethoxysulfates Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol) found in consumer products generally are linear alcohols, which could be mixtures of entirely linear alkyl chains or of both linear and mono-branched alkyl chains. A high-volume example of these is sodium laureth sulfate a foaming agent in shampoos and liquid soaps, as well as industrial detergents. Environmental and safety Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol) Human health for Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) are not observed to be mutagenic, carcinogenic, or skin sensitizers, nor cause reproductive or developmental effects.[18] One byproduct of Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) is 1,4-dioxane, a possible human carcinogen.[19] Undiluted Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol) can cause dermal or eye irritation. In aqueous solution, the level of irritation is dependent on the concentration. Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol) are considered to have low to moderate toxicity for acute oral exposure, low acute dermal toxicity, and have mild irritation potential for skin and eyes at concentrations found in consumer products. Aquatic and environmental aspects Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol) are usually released down the drain, where they may be adsorbed into solids and biodegrade through anaerobic processes, with ~28–58% degraded in the sewer.[20][non-primary source needed] The remaining Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol) are treated at waste water treatment plants and biodegraded via aerobic processes with less than 0.8% of Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol) released in effluent.[20] If released into surface waters, sediment or soil, Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol) will degrade through aerobic and anaerobic processes or be taken up by plants and animals. Toxicity to certain invertebrates has a range of EC50 values for linear AE from 0.1 mg/l to greater than 100 mg/l. For branched alcohol exthoxylates, toxicity ranges from 0.5 mg/l to 50 mg/l.[16] The EC50 toxicity for algae from linear and branched Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol) was 0.05 mg/l to 50 mg/l. Acute toxicity to fish ranges from LC50 values for linear AE of 0.4 mg/l to 100 mg/l, and branched is 0.25 mg/l to 40 mg/l. For invertebrates, algae and fish the essentially linear and branched Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol) are considered to not have greater toxicity than Linear AE. Alcohol ethoxysulfates (Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol)s) Biodegradation of Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) The degradation of Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol) proceeds by ω- or β-oxidation of the alkyl chain, enzymatic hydrolysis of the sulfate ester, and by cleavage of an ether bond in the Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol) producing alcohol or Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol) and an ethylene glycol sulfate. Studies of aerobic processes also found Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol) to be readily biodegradable.[12] The half-life of both AE and Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol) in surface water is estimated to be less than 12 hours.[21][non-primary source needed] The removal of Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol) due to degradation via anaerobic processes is estimated to be between 75 and 87%.

Corbicula growth was measured to be affected at a concentration of 75 ug/L. The mayfly, genus Tricorythodes has a normalized density NOEC value of 190 ug/L. Human safety of Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol) has not been found to be genotoxic, mutagenic, or carcinogenic. Alcohols, C8-10, ethoxylated, propoxylated, (Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG)) are a small subset of alcohol ethoxylates which have many applications, but are primarily used in detergents and as surfactants because they are particularly effective at removing oily soils. They are also used in commercial and residential cleaners (3) and hydraulic fracturing. Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alcohol ethoxylate)s are a class of compounds that are commonly used throughout many industrial practices and commercial markets. These compounds are synthesized via the reaction of a fatty alcohol and ethylene oxide, resulting in a molecule that consists of two main components, (1) the oleophilic, carbon-rich, fatty alcohol and (2) the hydrophilic, polyoxyethylene chain. Due the basic structure of these compounds that pair a hydrophobic portion (water-hating) with a hydrophilic component (water-loving), Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alcohol ethoxylate)s are a versatile class of compounds, commonly referred to as surfactants. Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alcohol ethoxylate) surfactants enhance the mixing and solubilization of oil and water by having these contrasting sections within the same compound. With this unique structure, a single molecule can inhabit the interface of two immiscible phases (i.e. oil and water), effectively bringing them closer together and lowering the interfacial energy associated between them. By lowering this energy, many novel solution applications can be accessed by increasing the homogeneity of these two previously immiscible phases. What is Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alcohol ethoxylate)? Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alcohol ethoxylate)s can vary widely in their properties and applications because the materials used to make these products can vary in their structures and amounts. For instance, fatty alcohols, which are commonly sourced from natural materials, can provide different structures depending on the plant from which they were extracted. Common natural sources of fatty alcohols include the palm oil tree (including both palm oil and palm kernel oil), oils from the coconut tree, and the oil from rapeseed. Each of these natural sources differs in its distribution of carbon chains, making an Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alcohol ethoxylate) from coconut oil alcohol different from an Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alcohol ethoxylate) made from the alcohol of a palm kernel oil. Oxiteno offers a wide array of Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alcohol ethoxylate)s that have been sourced from natural materials (Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alcohol ethoxylate)s), each of which provide a unique set of application properties. Additionally, fatty alcohols can also be synthesized from petroleum products, providing unique structures in the hydrophobic moiety that are not commonly observed in nature. Branched alcohols and alcohols of specific carbon distributions can be attained using synthetic starting materials, all of which strongly affect the Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alcohol ethoxylate)’s final properties. If you’re seeking surfactant companies, please visit the Oxiteno website to see our large portfolio of Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alcohol ethoxylate)s from synthetic sources. Alternatively, the length of the polyoxyethylene component (i.e. the hydrophilic portion) of the Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alcohol ethoxylate) provides this class of compounds with a wide assortment of water solubilities and detergency properties. Increasing the amount of ethylene oxide on the Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alcohol ethoxylate) typically increases its water solubility, as well as increases the hydrophilic/lipophilic balance (HLB) of the compound. Ranging in arbitrary units of 1-20, the HLB of a nonionic surfactant can be calculated and used to determine the propensity of a compound to work effectively in a given solution of oil and water. Lower HLB values (< 10) are commonly used for oil-rich solutions while surfactants with higher HLB values (> 10) are typically most efficient in oil-in-water emulsions. Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) is a chemical reaction in which ethylene oxide adds to a substrate. Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) is the most widely practiced alkoxylation, which involves the addition of epoxides to substrates. In the usual application, alcohols and phenols are converted into R(OC2H4)nOH where n ranges from 1 to 10. Such compounds are called Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG). Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) are often converted to related species called ethoxysulfates. Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) and ethoxysulfates are surfactants, used widely in cosmetic and other commercial products.[1] The process is of great industrial significance with more than 2,000,000 metric tons of various ethoxylates produced worldwide in 1994. Production of Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) The process was developed at the Ludwigshafen laboratories of IG Farben by Conrad Schöller and Max Wittwer during the 1930s. Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) Industrial Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) is primarily performed upon fatty alcohols in order to generate fatty Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (FAE's), which are a common form of nonionic surfactant (e.g. octaethylene glycol monododecyl ether). Such alcohols may be obtained by the hydrogenation of fatty acids from seed oils,[5] or by hydroformylation in the Shell higher olefin process.[6] The reaction proceeds by blowing ethylene oxide through the alcohol at 180 °C and under 1-2 bar of pressure, with potassium hydroxide (KOH) serving as a catalyst.[7] The process is highly exothermic (ΔH -92 kJ/mol of ethylene oxide reacted) and requires careful control to avoid a potentially disastrous thermal runaway. ROH + n C2H4O → R(OC2H4)nOH The starting materials are usually primary alcohols as they react ~10-30x faster than do secondary alcohols.[8] Typically 5-10 units of ethylene oxide are added to each alcohol,[6] however Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol) can be more prone to Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) than the starting alcohol, making the reaction difficult to control and leading to the formation of a product with varying repeat unit length (the value of n in the equation above). Better control can be afforded by the use of more sophisticated catalysts,[9] which can be used to generate narrow-range ethoxylates. Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol) are considered to be a high production volume (HPV) chemical by the US EPA.[10] Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) propoxylation Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) is sometimes combined with propoxylation, the analogous reaction using propylene oxide as the monomer. Both reactions are normally performed in the same reactor and may be run simultaneously to give a random polymer, or in alternation to obtain block copolymers such as poloxamers.[7] Propylene oxide is more hydrophobic than ethylene oxide and its inclusion at low levels can significantly affect the properties of the surfactant. In particular Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG) (alkoxylated alcohol) which have been 'capped' with ~1 propylene oxide unit are extensively marketed as defoamers. What Is Alcohol alkoxylate (Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG))? Alcohol alkoxylate (Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG)), also known as Plurafac, Poloxalene, or Pluronic, is a clear or slightly yellow liquid but can also appear in granular form.[1,2,3] It is a copolymer of polyethylene and polypropylene ether glycol. What Does Alcohol alkoxylate (Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG)) Do in Our products? Alcohol alkoxylate (Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG)) is a surfactant used in household cleaning products as a rinse aid to prevent spotting.[5] It is also a wetting agent that controls foam.[6] We use it in our dishwasher detergent. Why Puracy Uses Alcohol alkoxylate (Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG)) Alcohol alkoxylate (Greenbentin-SG/854/AG (GREENBENTIN-SG/854/AG)) is a mild eye and skin irritant.[7] Whole Foods has deemed the ingredient acceptable in its body care and cleaning product quality standards.

EC Number: 204-227-8
Molecular Formula: C10H13N5O5
Formula Weight: 283.2

Guanosine is an aromatic organic molecule and a purine nucleoside.
Guanosine can be phosphorylated to become guanosine monophosphate (CGMP), cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), guanosine diphosphate.

Guanosine (symbol G or Guo) is a purine nucleoside comprising guanine attached to a ribose (ribofuranose) ring via a β-N9-glycosidic bond.
Guanosine can be phosphorylated to become guanosine monophosphate (GMP), cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), guanosine diphosphate (GDP), and guanosine triphosphate (GTP).

These forms play important roles in various biochemical processes such as synthesis of nucleic acids and proteins, photosynthesis, muscle contraction, and intracellular signal transduction (cGMP).
When guanine is attached by Guanosine N9 nitrogen to the C1 carbon of a deoxyribose ring Guanosine is known as deoxyguanosine.

Guanosine is a purine nucleoside formed from a beta-N9-glycosidic bond between guanine and a ribose ring and is essential for metabolism.

Guanosine is functionally related to a guanine.

Guanosine is a nucleoside comprising guanine attached to a ribose (ribofuranose) ring via a β-N9-glycosidic bond.
Guanosine can be phosphorylated to become GMP (guanosine monophosphate), cGMP (cyclic guanosine monophosphate), GDP (guanosine diphosphate) and GTP (guanosine triphosphate) which are factors in signal transduction pathways.

Guanosine is a purine nucleoside thought to have neuroprotective properties.
Guanosine is released in the brain under physiological conditions and even more during pathological events, reducing neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, and excitotoxicity, as well as exerting trophic effects in neuronal and glial cells.

In agreement, guanosine was shown to be protective in several in vitro and/or in vivo experimental models of central nervous system (CNS) diseases including ischemic stroke, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, spinal cord injury, nociception, and depression.
The mechanisms underlying the neurobiological properties of guanosine seem to involve the activation of several intracellular signaling pathways and a close interaction with the adenosinergic system, with a consequent stimulation of neuroprotective and regenerative processes in the CNS.

Within this context, the present review will provide an overview of the current literature on the effects of guanosine in the CNS.
The elucidation of the complex signaling events underlying the biochemical and cellular effects of this nucleoside may further establish guanosine as a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of several neuropathologies.

A nucleoside is a nucleobase with a five-carbon sugar (either ribose or deoxyribose).
Guanosine is a glycoside formed from the hydrolysis of nucleic acid.

A purine nucleoside is one in which the nucleobase is a purine, such as guanine in guanosine.
Guanosine is a nucleoside consisting of guanine and ribose sugar linked by β-N9-glycosidic bond.

When a phosphate group is covalently attached to the sugar, Guanosine forms a nucleotide.
An example of a nucleotide wherein three phosphate groups are attached to guanosine is guanosine triphosphate (GTP), one of the building blocks of RNA synthesis.

Guanosine (G), also known as 2-amino-inosine, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as purine nucleosides.
Purine nucleosides are compounds comprising a purine base attached to a ribosyl or deoxyribosyl sugar moiety.

Guanosine consists of a guanine base attached to a ribose (ribofuranose) ring via a beta-N9-glycosidic bond.
Guanosine is a white, crystalline powder with no odor and mild saline taste.

Guanosine is very soluble in acetic acid, and slightly soluble in water, but insoluble in ethanol, diethyl ether, benzene, and chloroform.
Guanosine exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to plants to humans.

High levels of guanosine can be found in clovers, coffee plants, and the pollen of pines.
Guanosine has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as leeks, garlic, chicory roots, green bell peppers, and black-eyed peas.

Guanosine plays an important role in various biochemical processes including the synthesis of nucleic acids such as RNA and intracellular signal transduction (cGMP).
The antiviral drug acyclovir, often used in herpes treatment, and the anti-HIV drug abacavir, are both structurally similar to guanosine.

Guanosine can be phosphorylated to become guanosine monophosphate (GMP), cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), guanosine diphosphate (GDP), and guanosine triphosphate (GTP).
In humans, guanosine is involved in intracellular signalling through the adenosine receptors A1R and A2AR.

Evidence from rodent and cell models has shown a number of important neurotrophic and neuroprotective effects of guanosine.
In particular, Guanosine is effective in preventing deleterious consequences of seizures, spinal cord injury, pain, mood disorders and aging-related diseases, such as ischemia, Parkinson‚ Äôs and Alzheimer‚ Äôs diseases.

Studies with rodent models of Parkinson‚Äôs disease have shown that guanosine decreases neuronal apoptotic cell death and increases dopaminergic neurons at substantia nigra pars compacta, accompanied by an improvement of motor symptoms in Parkinson‚ Äôs disease.
Guanosine promotes neurite arborization, outgrowth, proliferation and differentiation.

Systemic administration of guanosine for eight weeks (8 mg/kg) has been shown to stimulate neuroprogenitors proliferation in the subventricular zone (SVZ) in a mouse model of Parkinsonism .
The effect of guanosine treatment is accompanied by an increased number of fibroblast growth factor (FGF-2)-positive cells which is an important regulator of neuroprogenitor/stem cell proliferation, survival and differentiation.
Guanosine prevents reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and cell death in hippocampal slices subjected to the oxygen/glucose deprivation.

Uses of Guanosine:
The antiviral drug acyclovir, often used in herpes treatment, and the anti-HIV drug abacavir, are structurally similar to guanosine.
Guanosine was also used to make regadenoson.

Applications of Guanosine:

Guanosine has been used:
Guanosine is used as a reference standard for the analysis of glucosinolates by high-performance liquid chromatography with diode-array detection and electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-DAD-ESI/MS)
Guanosine is used as a component of Mouse Embryonic Fibroblasts (MEFs) culture
Guanosine is used as a standard for the detection of residual RNA contaminant in oil palm plant genome samples by HPLC

Functions of Guanosine:
Guanosine is required for an RNA splicing reaction in mRNA, when a "self-splicing" intron removes itself from the mRNA message by cutting at both ends, re-ligating, and leaving just the exons on either side to be translated into protein.

Biological Functions of Guanosine:
Guanosine, just as the other nucleosides, can give rise to nucleotides.
When phosphorylated by kinases, the nucleoside is converted into a nucleotide.

Thus, a nucleotide is a nucleoside with a phosphate group.
Guanosine can form guanosine monophosphate (GMP, i.e. guanosine with a single phosphate group), cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), guanosine diphosphate (GDP, i.e. guanosine with two phosphate groups), and guanosine triphosphate (GTP, i.e. guanosine with three phosphate groups).

GTP, in particular, is one of the building blocks for the formation of RNA.
Structurally, guanine is attached to the C-1 of the ribose while the phosphate moiety is attached to the C-5 of the ribose.
Apart from nucleic acid synthesis, they are also involved in other biochemical processes, e.g. protein synthesis, photosynthesis, muscle contraction, and intracellular signal transduction (cGMP).

Sources of Guanosine:
Guanosine can be found in pancreas, clover, coffee plant, and pollen of pines.

Physical and Chemical Properties of Guanosine:

Common Biological Reactions of Guanosine:
Nucleosides such as guanosine can be produced by de novo synthesis pathways in the liver.
Nevertheless, they may also be obtained from the diet.

When the diet contains nucleotides, the body digests them by nucleotidases to produce nucleosides and phosphates.
Nucleosides are degraded into their subcomponents (i.e. nucleobases and sugar) by the action of nucleosidases in the lumen of the digestive tract.

Biochem/physiol Actions of Guanosine:
Guanosine nucleoside elicits cellular effect as the guanine-based purinergic system.
Guanosine modulates glutamate uptake by glutamate transporters.

Guanosine may have neuroprotective functionality in central nervous system disorders.
Guanosine promotes neurite arborization, outgrowth, proliferation and differentiation.
Administration of guanosine replenished GTP and elicits protective function in renal ischemic injury.

Guanosine vs. Deoxyguanosine:
Nucleosides may be classified into ribonucleosides or deoxyribonucleosides, depending on the sugar component.
Guanosine is a ribonucleoside due to Guanosine ribose sugar.

In contrast, deoxyguanosine is a deoxyribonucleoside for having a sugar component that is deoxyribose.
Deoxyguanosine differs from guanosine by having a hydroxyl group replaced by hydrogen at the 2′ position of the sugar moiety.

In deoxyguanosine, the N9 nitrogen of guanine is attached to the C-1 of deoxirobose ring.
Deoxyguanosine pairs up with deoxycytidine in DNA whereas guanosine pairs with cytidine in RNA.

General Manufacturing Information of Guanylhydrazine hydrogencarbonate:

Industry Processing Sectors:
All Other Chemical Product and Preparation Manufacturing

Preparation of Guanylhydrazine hydrogencarbonate:
Aminoguanidinium bicarbonate can be prepared by reacting calcium cyanamide with hydrazine sulfate.
Guanylhydrazine hydrogencarbonate can also be easily prepared by reducing nitroguanidine with zinc powder.

Diachrynic used this route obtaining a great yield:
41.14 g zinc powder (629 mmol, 3.3 molar eq.) are weighed and put to the side.
Into a reaction flask of at least 500 mL are put 20.00 g nitroguanidine (192 mmol, 1 molar eq.) and 47.62 g of ammonium sulfate (360 mmol, 1.88 molar eq.) in 285 mL of water.

The suspension is stirred and not everything dissolves, this is expected.
The reaction flask is immersed in an ice bath and equipped with magnetic stirring and a thermometer.
Stirring is started.

Once the solution reaches 10 °C the addition of small spatulas of zinc powder at a time is started.
Monitor the exotherm and don't add too much at once, however the reaction is fairly easy to control.

3-4 spatulas of zinc can be added at a time, making the temperature jump up by 5-8 °C.
The reaction was kept between 5-15 °C, leaning to the latter temperature.

The complete addition of zinc took about 1 hour, during which the ice bath was refilled just once.
Afterwards the reaction was left stirring at about 15 °C for a further 30 minutes.

The pH rose to about 8-9.
Using a fritted vacuum filter the zinc oxide sludge was removed, Guanylhydrazine hydrogencarbonate filtered fairly easily.

The yellow colored filtrate is put into a flask with magnetic stirring, and 8.57 g of 25% ammonia solution (126 mmol, 0.66 molar eq.) are added as well as 28.57 g of sodium bicarbonate (340 mmol, 0.94 molar eq.) with stirring, Guanylhydrazine hydrogencarbonate dissolves after a short while.
The solution is left standing for 12 h during which the Guanylhydrazine hydrogencarbonate slowly precipitates.

Afterwards Guanylhydrazine hydrogencarbonate is vacuum filtered off and air dried.

Yield of Guanylhydrazine hydrogencarbonate: 15.700 g (115 mmol, 60% based on nitroguanidine)

Production of Guanylhydrazine hydrogencarbonate:

1-) Two hundred and sixteen grams (2.07 moles) of nitroguanidine1 and 740 g. (11.3 moles) of purified zinc dust are thoroughly ground together in a mortar, and then enough water (about 400 ml.) is added with stirring with the pestle to form a thick paste.
The paste is transferred to a 3-l (enameled can or beaker surrounded by an ice bath)

A solution of 128 g. (2.14 moles) of glacial acetic acid in 130 ml of water is cooled to 5° in another 3-l (Beaker, which is fitted with a strong mechanical stirrer and surrounded by an ice bath)
The paste of nitroguanidine and zinc dust, cooled to 5°, is added slowly with mechanical stirring, the temperature of the reaction mixture being kept between 5° and 15°.
A total of about 1 kg of cracked ice is added to the mixture from time to time as the mixture becomes too warm or too thick to stir.

The addition of the paste takes about 8 hours, and the final volume of the mixture is about 1.5 l.
The mixture is then slowly warmed to 40° on a water bath with continued stirring, and this temperature is maintained for 1–5 minutes, until reduction is complete.

The solution is immediately separated from the insoluble material by filtration on a 20-cm.
Büchner funnel, and the cake is sucked as dry as possible.

The residue is transferred to the 3-l (beaker, triturated well with 1 l) of water, and then separated from the liquid by filtration.
In the same manner, the residue is washed twice more with two 600-ml. portions of water.

The filtrates are combined and placed in a 5-l (round-bottomed flask)
Two hundred grams of ammonium chloride is added, and the solution is mechanically stirred until solution is complete.

The stirring is continued, and 220 g. (2.62 moles) of sodium bicarbonate is added during a period of about 10 minutes.
The Guanylhydrazine hydrogencarbonate begins to precipitate after a few minutes, and the solution is then placed in a refrigerator overnight.

The precipitate is collected by filtration on a Büchner funnel.
The cake is removed to a 1-l (beaker and mixed with a 400-ml) portion of a 5% solution of ammonium chloride and filtered.

Guanylhydrazine hydrogencarbonate is again washed with two 400-ml portions of distilled water, the wash solution being removed each time by filtration.
Finally the solid is pressed down on the Büchner funnel; the mat is broken up with a spatula and washed while on the funnel with two 400-ml (portions of 95% ethanol and then with one 400-ml) (portion of ether)
After air drying, the Guanylhydrazine hydrogencarbonate amounts to 180–182 g.

2-) 1. The zinc is purified by stirring 1.2 kg of commercial zinc dust with 3 l of 2% hydrochloric acid for 1 minute.

The acid is removed by filtration, and the zinc is washed in a 4-l beaker with one 3-l portion of 2% hydrochloric acid, three 3-l portions of distilled water, two 2-l portions of 95% ethanol, and finally with one 2-l portion of absolute ether, the wash solutions being removed each time by filtration.
Then the material is thoroughly dried and any lumps are broken up in a mortar.

2. The solution becomes basic to litmus after one-half to three-fourths of the paste has been added.
Lower yields are obtained if a larger excess of acetic acid is employed.

3. The state of reduction can be determined by placing 3 drops of the reaction mixture in a test tube containing 5 ml of a 10% solution of sodium hydroxide and then adding 5 ml of a freshly prepared saturated solution of ferrous ammonium sulfate.
A red coloration indicates incomplete reduction; when the reduction is complete, only a greenish precipitate is observed.
The mixture should not be heated after this test shows that reduction is complete.

4. The presence of the ammonium chloride prevents the coprecipitation of zinc salts when sodium bicarbonate is added to the solution to precipitate the aminoguanidine as the bicarbonate.
If the solution is not clear at this step, Guanylhydrazine hydrogencarbonate should be filtered.

5. The Guanylhydrazine hydrogencarbonate is pure enough for most purposes.
Guanylhydrazine hydrogencarbonate should not be recrystallized from hot water, since decomposition will occur.

6. W. W. Hartman and Ross Philips have submitted a procedure suitable for the preparation of Guanylhydrazine hydrogencarbonate on a larger scale.
The sulfates of methylisothiourea and of hydrazine are allowed to react with the evolution of methyl mercaptan.

In a 30-gal crock are placed 10 l of water and 5760 g (20 moles) of methylisothiourea sulfate In a 22-l flask, 5.2 kg (40 moles) of hydrazine sulfate is stirred with 12 l of water, and 40% sodium hydroxide is added until all the hydrazine sulfate has dissolved and the solution is just neutral to Congo paper.

The exact amount of alkali is noted and a duplicate amount added.
The hydrazine solution is then added to the 30-gal crock with stirring, as fast as possible, without allowing the foam to overflow the crock.

The mixing is done out-of-doors, or in an efficient hood, since large volumes of methyl mercaptan are evolved.
If the reaction is carried out on a smaller scale in 12- or 22-l flasks, using appropriate amounts of material, the methyl mercaptan evolved may be absorbed in cold sodium hydroxide solution and isolated if desired.

The solution is stirred until evolution of mercaptan stops, and then a few liters of water are distilled off under reduced pressure to free the solution entirely from mercaptan.
The residual liquor is chilled in a crock, and a crop of hydrated sodium sulfate is filtered off, washed with ice water, and discarded.

The filtrate is warmed to 20–25°, 25 ml of glacial acetic acid is added, then 4 kg of sodium bicarbonate, and the solution is stirred vigorously for 5 minutes and thereafter occasionally during an hour, or until the precipitate no longer increases.
The precipitate is filtered with suction and washed with ice water and then with methanol, and is dried at a temperature not above 60–70°.

The yield is 3760 g (69% of the theoretical amount).
Hydrazine sulfate may be recovered from the final filtrate, if the filtrate is strongly acidified with sulfuric acid and allowed to cool.

Guar Gum is a water soluble powder obtained from plant mucilage (Cyanopis tetragonoloba).
Guar gum is an extract of the guar bean, where it acts as a food and water store.
Guar gum comes from the endosperm of the seed of the legume plant Cyamopsis Tetragonoloba; an annual plant, grown in dry regions of India as a food crop for animals.


The guar bean is principally grown in India and Pakistan, with smaller crops grown in the U.S., Australia, China, and Africa.
The drought-resistant guar bean can be eaten as a green bean, fed to cattle, or used in green manure.
For hundreds of years, Guar has been used as a vegetable in India.


Guar is a rain-fed crop, sown in July-August and harvested in October-November.
Being a leguminous crop, guar fixes nitrogen, making the soil fertile.
The growing season of guar is 14 -16 weeks and requires reasonably warm weather and moderate flashing rainfall with plenty of sunshine.


Too much rain can cause the plant to become more 'leafy' thereby reducing the number of pods or the number of seeds per pod which affects the size and yield of seeds.
The crop is generally sown after the monsoon rainfall in the second half of July to early August and is harvested in late October to early November.


The Guar is a natural rain-fed crop.
Depending on the monsoon rainfall the total size of the Guar crop varies from year to year.
The guar seeds are dehusked, milled and screened to obtain the guar gum.

If you're new to gluten free cooking, then you've probably noticed the ingredient "guar gum" floating around in some of your pinned recipes.


Widely available and easy to use guar gum is a staple in many gluten free households.
Why?
In most baked treats, gluten acts as a binding agent to keep all of the ingredients together.


This means that if you're baking a gluten-free treat, you'll no longer have the gluten to bind the ingredients to one another.
Enter, guar gum.
Guar gum is a natural ingredient that works similarly to gluten, to secure, emulsify and thicken gluten-free ingredients.


If you bake gluten-free goods without guar gum or a similar substitute, the result will likely be quite crummy.
Literally!

Fracturing fluids normally consist of many additives that serve two main purposes, firstly to enhance fracture creation and proppant carrying capability and secondly to minimize formation damage.
Viscosifiers, such as polymers and crosslinking agents, temperature stabilizers, pH control agents, and fluid loss control materials are among the additives that assist fracture creation.
Formation damage is minimized by incorporating breakers, biocides, and surfactants.
More appropriate gelling agents are linear polysaccharides, such as guar gum, cellulose, and their derivatives.


-Guar gums are preferred as thickeners for enhanced oil recovery (EOR).
Guar gum and its derivatives account for most of the gelled fracturing fluids.
Guar is more water-soluble than other gums, and it is also a better emulsifier, because it has more galactose branch points.
Guar gum shows high low-shear viscosity, but it is strongly shear-thinning.

Being non-ionic, Guar Gum is not affected by ionic strength or pH but will degrade at low pH at moderate temperature (pH 3 at 50 °C).
Guar's derivatives demonstrate stability in high temperature and pH environments.
Guar use allows for achieving exceptionally high viscosities, which improves the ability of the fracturing liquid to transport proppant.

Guar hydrates fairly rapidly in cold water to give highly viscous pseudoplastic solutions of, generally, greater low-shear viscosity than other hydrocolloid.
The colloidal solids present in guar make fluids more efficient by creating less filter cake.
Proppant pack conductivity is maintained by utilizing a fluid that has excellent fluid loss control, such as the colloidal solids present in guar gum.

Guar has up to eight times the thickening power of starch.
Derivatization of guar gum leads to subtle changes in properties, such as decreased hydrogen bonding, increased solubility in water-alcohol mixture, and improved electrolyte compatibility.
These changes in properties result in increased use in different fields, like textile printing, explosives, and oil-water fracturing applications.

PROPERTIES of GUAR GUM:
Chemical composition
Guar gum is a galactomannan polysaccharide whose backbone structure consists of a linear chain of mannose with short lateral-branches of galactose.
Chemically, guar gum is an exo-polysaccharide composed of the sugars galactose and mannose.
The backbone is a linear chain of β 1,4-linked mannose residues to which galactose residues are 1,6-linked at every second mannose, forming short side-branches.
Guar gum has the ability to withstand temperatures of 80 °C (176 °F) for five minutes.



SOLUBILITY AND VISCOSITY of GUAR GUM:
Guar gum is more soluble than locust bean gum due to its extra galactose branch points.
Unlike locust bean gum, Guar Gum is not self-gelling.
Either borax or calcium can cross-link guar gum, causing it to gel.

In water, Guar Gum is nonionic and hydrocolloidal.
Guar Gum is not affected by ionic strength or pH, but will degrade at extreme pH and temperature (e.g. pH 3 at 50 °C).
Guar Gum remains stable in solution over pH range 5–7.

Strong acids cause hydrolysis and loss of viscosity and alkalies in strong concentration also tend to reduce viscosity.
Guar Gum is insoluble in most hydrocarbon solvents.
The viscosity attained is dependent on time, temperature, concentration, pH, rate of agitation and particle size of the powdered gum used.

The lower the temperature, the lower the rate at which viscosity increases, and the lower the final viscosity.
Above 80°, the final viscosity is slightly reduced.
Finer guar powders swell more rapidly than larger particle size coarse powdered gum.



HOW DOES THE PRODUCTION AND USE OF GUAR GUM IMPACT THE ENVIRONMENT?
The guar plant is a low emission crop.
Guar Gum is drought tolerant, which means it can be grown in dry/semi-dry environments that might not otherwise be as environmentally useful.
The guar plant also has a longer growing cycle which extends the length of time it contributes to air purification.



HOW DOES GUAR GUM MAKE FOOD MORE AFFORDABLE?
Guar gum thickens foods, which allows the producer to make more of a certain product at a lower cost.
When Guar Gum acts as a binder, it keeps key ingredients together in one solid product.
This allows Guar Gum to stay fresh longer, furthering its shelf life and cutting down on food waste.



DOES GUAR GUM CONTAIN GENETICALLY MODIFIED ORGANISMS (GMOs)?
No, guar gum does not contain genetically modified organisms.



GUAR GUM IN FOOD INDUSTRY:
*Emulsifying
*Stabilizing
*Thickening
*Viscosity building



ORIGIN of GUAR GUM:
Guar gum is derived from the Cyamopsis tetragonoloba plant, a member of the Leguminosae family.
The domesticated species has been cultivated for centuries in India and Pakistan for human consumption and animal feed.
Guar gum production in the United States was developed in the late 1940s and early 1950s.
Guar Gum is mainly, as a replacement for locust bean gum in textile and paper manufacturing.
Currently, India accounts for 80% of the global guar gum production with the United States and China are the main importing countries.



GLUTEN FREE BAKING:
Guar Gum Powder: Uses & Benefits
Guar gum and gluten free baking go hand in hand.
Often, when switching to a gluten free lifestyle, creating your favorite baked treats is one of the biggest challenges you'll face.

Because gluten plays such a crucial role in creating the right texture in baked goods, it can be hard to achieve the feel and structure of traditional bread and dessert recipes without it.
That's where guar gum comes into play!
If you're baking with flours that don't have gluten in them, adding guar gum to the recipe can help add some elasticity to your dough.

The kind of flexibility that would usually be produced by gluten.
Guar gum allows you to make a gluten free treat that has the same texture as a traditional one, hence why we love it so much.
The recipe you choose to create will significantly affect how much guar gum needs to be used.
Bread recipes typically call for more guar gum and can use up to a teaspoon of it per every cup of gluten free flour.



THICKEN SAUCES:
At first, thickening sauces may seem like an easy task.
After all, flours and starches like cornstarch, arrowroot and tapioca can all be added to your favorite soup recipe.
The problem?

All of these flours and starches have different qualities, and knowing which one to use can be challenging.
Plus, if you're following a low carb diet or keto diet, even a tablespoon of these starches can drastically affect the nutritional content of the dish.
Guar gum is a great replacement thickener, and because it's flavorless it can be added to just about any recipe.
In fact, guar gum has a significant advantage over other thickeners: it's not affected by heat!

The molecules in starches like arrowroot powder and tapioca powder can be drastically affected by temperature.
When added to a recipe that's too hot or cold, these thickeners are not able to do their job.
Because guar gum doesn't need heat to work correctly, it can be added to hot and cold dishes, while still maintaining it's thickening properties.
Add it to recipes like salad dressings or your favorite smoothie to perfect the consistency of the plate.



IMPROVE THE CONSISTENCY OF FROZEN GOODS:
Now that you know that guar gum doesn't need heat to do its job, you might be wondering if it works just as well in frozen recipes.
It does!
Guar gum is a great ingredient to have on hand if you're working within certain dietary restrictions.
Gluten free, vegan and keto-friendly, guar gum can help you navigate through some of the most stringent dietary restrictions.

Adding guar gum to frozen desserts like ice cream, popsicles and smoothies work to create a smoother and softer consistency.
Doing so will help keep your frozen foods from turning into ice-like blocks.
Guar gum can also be used when making jams.
Just add a bit of guar gum to sweet berries or fresh fruit for the perfect refrigerator jam.



GUAR GUM MEASUREMENTS:
Now, it's time to put your guar gum knowledge to use and start cooking!
As we mentioned before, it's important to remember that a little bit of guar gum goes a long way.
While measurements will vary depending on which recipe you're making, it's essential not to overdo it when adding guar gum.
It's recommended that no matter what you're cooking up, never use more than a tablespoon of guar gum in a recipe.



ADVANTAGES of GUAR GUM:
Guar Gum possesses double the ability to thicken than flour and almost eight times that of the corn starch powder
Guar Gum's usage avoids the formation of any lump and does not break down easily like the corn starch.
Guar Gum eliminates the need for heat to thicken and can get to hydrate itself very quickly

Experts suggest the appropriate ratio which works well with Ethylene Oxide free guar gum manufacturers as an excess of it may form lumps in the whole recipe
Almost Seventy Percent of the food industry applications of the fast-paced industries use the guar gum powder due to its varied and multiple benefits.
Guar Gum is also expected to grow exponentially looking at the current demand scenario.
Guar Gum is always wise to opt for a reputed Ethylene Oxide free guar gum powder exporter as this miraculous powder offers health benefits like reduction of weight and easy bowel movement.

Guar Gum needs to be boiled in hot water and is beneficial for people who want a reduction of weight as it reduces the calories inside the human body.
The water retention capacity of Guar Gum is also eight times more than the corn starch.
Guar Gum is an effective natural alternative for baking and cooking and a great ingredient in the preparation of gluten-free flours for household and beauty concoctions.



MEDICINAL PROPERTIES of GUAR GUM:
Guar Gum's healing properties are ideal to cure snakebites and boost the vision and power of the eyes
The inherent anti-bacterial properties of Guar Gum can fight skin diseases like fungal infections and ringworms
If toddlers face the constipation problem along with fever and cold this remedial measure can be started immediately.
Guar Gum also helps to manage teething issues in children.
Guar Gum has potential health maintenance capacities and can fight against typhoid effectively



PRODUCTION AND TRADE:
The guar bean is principally grown in India, Pakistan, the United States, Australia and Africa.
India is the largest producer, accounting for nearly 80% of the world production.
In India, Rajasthan, Gujarat, and Haryana are the main producing regions.
The US has produced 4,600 to 14,000 tonnes of guar over the last 5 years.
Texas acreage since 1999 has fluctuated from about 7,000 to 50,000 acres.
The world production for guar gum and its derivatives is about 1.0 million tonnes.
Non-food guar gum accounts for about 40% of the total demand.



THICKENING:
One use of guar gum is a thickening agent in foods and medicines for humans and animals.
Because it is gluten-free, it is used as an additive to replace wheat flour in baked goods.
It has been shown to reduce serum cholesterol and lower blood glucose levels.

Guar gum is also economical because it has almost eight times the water-thickening ability of other agents (e.g. cornstarch) and only a small quantity is needed for producing sufficient viscosity.

In addition to guar gum's effects on viscosity, its high ability to flow, or deform, gives it favorable rheological properties.
Guar Gum forms breakable[clarification needed] gels when cross-linked with boron.
Guar Gum is used in various multi-phase formulations for hydraulic fracturing, in some as an emulsifier because it helps prevent oil droplets from coalescing, and in others as a stabilizer to help prevent solid particles from settling and/or separating.

Fracking entails the pumping of sand-laden fluids into an oil or natural gas reservoir at high pressure and flow rate.
This cracks the reservoir rock and then props the cracks open.
Water alone is too thin to be effective at carrying proppant sand, so guar gum is one of the ingredients added to thicken the slurry mixture and improve its ability to carry proppant.

There are several properties which are important:
1. Thixotropic: the fluid should be thixotropic, meaning it should gel within a few hours.
2. Gelling and de-gelling: The desired viscosity changes over the course of a few hours.
When the fracking slurry is mixed, it needs to be thin enough to make it easier to pump.

Then as it flows down the pipe, the fluid needs to gel to support the proppant and flush it deep into the fractures.
After that process, the gel has to break down so that it is possible to recover the fracking fluid but leave the proppant behind.
This requires a chemical process which produces then breaks the gel cross-linking at a predictable rate.
Guar+boron+proprietary chemicals can accomplish both of these goals at once.



ICE CRYSTAL GROWTH:
Guar gum retards ice crystal growth by slowing mass transfer across the solid/liquid interface.
Guar Gum shows good stability during freeze-thaw cycles.
Thus, Guar Gum is used in egg-free ice cream.

Guar gum has synergistic effects with locust bean gum and sodium alginate.
May be synergistic with xanthan: together with xanthan gum, Guar Gum produces a thicker product (0.5% guar gum / 0.35% xanthan gum), which is used in applications such as soups, which do not require clear results.

Guar gum is a hydrocolloid, hence is useful for making thick pastes without forming a gel, and for keeping water bound in a sauce or emulsion.
Guar gum can be used for thickening cold and hot liquids, to make hot gels, light foams and as an emulsion stabilizer.
Guar gum can be used for cottage cheeses, curds, yoghurt, sauces, soups and frozen desserts.
Guar gum is also a good source of fiber with 80% soluble dietary fiber on a dry weight basis.



MANUFACTURING PROCESS:
Depending upon the requirement of the end product, various processing techniques are used.
The commercial production of guar gum normally uses roasting, differential attrition, sieving, and polishing.
Food-grade guar gum is manufactured in stages.

Guar split selection is important in this process.
The split is screened to clean it and then soaked to pre-hydrate it in a double-cone mixer.
The prehydrating stage is very important because it determines the rate of hydration of the final product.

The soaked splits, which have reasonably high moisture content, are passed through a flaker.
The flaked guar split is ground and then dried.
The powder is screened through rotary screens to deliver the required particle size.
Oversize particles are either recycled to main ultra fine or reground in a separate regrind plant, according to the viscosity requirement.

This stage helps to reduce the load at the grinder.
The soaked splits are difficult to grind.
Direct grinding of those generates more heat in the grinder, which is not desired in the process, as it reduces the hydration of the product.

Through the heating, grinding, and polishing process, the husk is separated from the endosperm halves and the refined guar split is obtained.
Through the further grinding process, the refined guar split is then treated and converted into powder.
The split manufacturing process yields husk and germ called “guar meal”, widely sold in the international market as cattle feed.

It is high in protein and contains oil and albuminoids, about 50% in germ and about 25% in husks.
The quality of the food-grade guar gum powder is defined from its particle size, rate of hydration, and microbial content.

Manufacturers define different grades and qualities of guar gum by the particle size, the viscosity generated with a given concentration, and the rate at which that viscosity develops.
Coarse-mesh guar gums will typically, but not always, develop viscosity more slowly.

They may achieve a reasonably high viscosity, but will take longer to achieve.
On the other hand, they will disperse better than fine-mesh, all conditions being equal.
A finer mesh, such as a 200 mesh, requires more effort to dissolve.
Modified forms of guar gum are available commercially, including enzyme-modified, cationic and hydropropyl guar.



DIGESTIVE HEALTH:
Because guar gum is high in fiber, it may support the health of your digestive system.
One study found that Guar Gum helped relieve constipation by speeding movement through the intestinal tract.
Partially hydrolyzed guar gum consumption was also associated with improvements in stool texture and bowel movement frequency.
Additionally, Guar Gum may act as a prebiotic by promoting the growth of good bacteria and reducing the growth of harmful bacteria in the gut.
Thanks to its potential ability to promote digestive health, Guar Gum may also help treat irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).



BLOOD SUGAR:
Studies show that guar gum may lower blood sugar.
This is because Guar Gum’s a type of soluble fiber, which can slow the absorption of sugar and lead to a reduction in blood sugar levels.
In one study, people with diabetes were given guar gum 4 times per day for 6 weeks.
It found that guar gum led to a significant decrease in blood sugar and a 20% drop in LDL (bad) cholesterol.
Another study observed similar findings, showing that consuming guar gum significantly improved blood sugar control in 11 people with type 2 diabetes.



BLOOD CHOLESTEROL:
Soluble fibers such as guar gum have been shown to have cholesterol-lowering effects.
Fiber binds to bile acids in your body, causing them to be excreted and reducing the number of bile acids in circulation.
This forces the liver to use cholesterol to produce more bile acids, leading to a decrease in cholesterol levels.
One study had 19 people with obesity and diabetes take a daily supplement containing 15 grams of guar gum.
They found that it led to lower levels of total blood cholesterol, as well as lower LDL cholesterol, compared to a placebo.



WEIGHT MAINTENANCE:
Some studies have found that guar gum could aid weight loss and appetite control.
In general, fiber moves through the body undigested and may help promote satiety while reducing appetite.
In fact, one study showed that eating an additional 14 grams of fiber per day may lead to a 10% decrease in calories consumed.
Guar gum may be particularly effective at reducing appetite and calorie intake.
One review of three studies concluded that guar gum improved satiety and reduced the number of calories consumed from snacking throughout the day.
Another study looked at the effects of guar gum on weight loss in women.
They found that consuming 15 grams of guar gum per day helped women lose 5.5 pounds (2.5 kg) more than those who took a placebo



CROSSLINKING GUAR:
Guar molecules have a tendency to aggregate during the hydraulic fracturing process, mainly due to intermolecular hydrogen bonding.
These aggregates are detrimental to oil recovery because they clog the fractures, restricting the flow of oil.
Cross-linking guar polymer chains prevents aggregation by forming metal – hydroxyl complexes.
The first crosslinked guar gels were developed in the late ‘60s.

Several metal additives have been used for crosslinking, among them are chromium, aluminium, antimony, zirconium, and the more commonly used, boron.
Boron, in the form of B(OH)4, reacts with the hydroxyl groups on the polymer in a two step process to link two polymer strands together to form bis-diol complexes.
1:1 1,2 diol complex and a 1:1 1,3 diol complex, place the negatively charged borate ion onto the polymer chain as a pendant group.
Boric acid itself does not apparently complex to the polymer so that all bound boron is negatively charged.

The primary form of crosslinking may be due to ionic association between the anionic borate complex and adsorbed cations on the second polymer chain .
The development of cross-linked gels was a major advance in fracturing fluid technology.
Viscosity is enhanced by tying together the low molecular weight strands, effectively yielding higher molecular weight strands and a rigid structure.
Cross-linking agents are added to linear polysaccharide slurries to provide higher proppant transport performance, relative to linear gels.

Lower concentrations of guar gelling agents are needed when linear guar chains are cross-linked.
It has been determined that reduced guar concentrations provide better and more complete breaks in a fracture.
The breakdown of cross-linked guar gel after the fracturing process restores formation permeability and allows increased production flow of petroleum products .

HOW DOES GUAR GUM WORK?
Guar gum is a fiber that normalizes the moisture content of the stool, absorbing excess liquid in diarrhea, and softening the stool in constipation.
Guar Gum also might help decrease the amount of cholesterol and glucose that is absorbed in the stomach and intestines.
There is some interest in using guar gum for weight loss because Guar Gum expands in the intestine, causing a sense of fullness.
This may decrease appetite.



USING GUAR GUM IN GLUTEN FREE GOODS:
Cookies……………………………...¼ to ½ teaspoon per cup of flour
Cakes and Pancakes………………..¾ teaspoon per cup of flour
Muffins and Quick Bread………....1 teaspoon per cup of flour
Bread……………………………....1 ½ to 2 teaspoons per cup of flour
Pizza Dough…………………..…....1 Tablespoon per cup of flour
For Hot Foods (gravies, stews, heated pudding)…Use 1-3 teaspoons per one quart of liquid.
For Cold Foods (salad dressing, ice creams, pudding) Use 1-2 teaspoons per quart of liquid.



GUAR GUM COMPARED TO XANTHAN GUM:
Ever tried a baked good that used only xanthan gum?
We have, and the result was completely different than that of guar gum.
When it comes to choosing the right gum to use, it depends on your taste preferences.

While xanthan gum is known to produce a treat with additional moisture, guar gum will likely create baked goods that dry out quicker.
Because each of these gums functions in a different way, they inevitably produce different results.
One of the most significant differences between xanthan gum and guar gum is where they originate from.

While guar gum is derived from a seed native to Asia, xanthan gum is produced by a microorganism called Xanthomonas Campestris.
Along with their differences in nature, they also have several differences in the kitchen.
While both can be used when creating gluten free foods, guar gum works better when added to recipes like smoothies, ice cream and pie fillings.
Xanthan gum, on the other hand, can be used to produce delicious baked goods and yeast bread.

Slime (toy), based on Guar gum thickener crosslinked with sodium tetraborate



CROSSLINKING, GUAR GUM THICKENER:
Guar molecules have a tendency to aggregate during the hydraulic fracturing process, mainly due to intermolecular hydrogen bonding.
These aggregates are detrimental to oil recovery because they clog the fractures, restricting the flow of oil.
Cross-linking guar polymer chains prevents aggregation by forming metal – hydroxyl complexes.

The first crosslinked guar gels were developed in the late ‘60s.
Several metal additives have been used for crosslinking, among them are chromium, aluminium, antimony, zirconium, and the more commonly used, boron.
Boron, in the form of B(OH)4, reacts with the hydroxyl groups on the polymer in a two step process to link two polymer strands together to form bis-diol complexes.

1:1 1,2 diol complex and a 1:1 1,3 diol complex, place the negatively charged borate ion onto the polymer chain as a pendant group.
Boric acid itself does not apparently complex to the polymer so that all bound boron is negatively charged.
The primary form of crosslinking may be due to ionic association between the anionic borate complex and adsorbed cations on the second polymer chain .

The development of cross-linked gels was a major advance in fracturing fluid technology.
Viscosity is enhanced by tying together the low molecular weight strands, effectively yielding higher molecular weight strands and a rigid structure.
Cross-linking agents are added to linear polysaccharide slurries to provide higher proppant transport performance, relative to linear gels.

Lower concentrations of guar gelling agents are needed when linear guar chains are cross-linked.
It has been determined that reduced guar concentrations provide better and more complete breaks in a fracture.
The breakdown of cross-linked guar gel after the fracturing process restores formation permeability and allows increased production flow of petroleum products.

THICKENING OF GUAR GUM THICKENER:
One use of Guar gum thickener is a thickening agent in foods and medicines for humans and animals.
Because it is gluten-free, Guar gum thickener is used as an additive to replace wheat flour in baked goods.
Guar gum thickener has been shown to reduce serum cholesterol and lower blood glucose levels.

Guar gum thickener is also economical because it has almost eight times the water-thickening ability of other agents (e.g. cornstarch) and only a small quantity is needed for producing sufficient viscosity.
Because less is required, Guar gum thickener costs are reduced.

In addition to Guar gum thickener's effects on viscosity, its high ability to flow, or deform, gives it favorable rheological properties.
Guar gum thickener forms breakable gels when cross-linked with boron.
Guar gum thickener is used in various multi-phase formulations for hydraulic fracturing, in some as an emulsifier because it helps prevent oil droplets from coalescing, and in others as a stabilizer to help prevent solid particles from settling and/or separating.

Fracking entails the pumping of sand-laden fluids into an oil or natural gas reservoir at high pressure and flow rate.
This cracks the reservoir rock and then props the cracks open.
Water alone is too thin to be effective at carrying proppant sand, so Guar gum thickener is one of the ingredients added to thicken the slurry mixture and improve its ability to carry proppant.

There are several properties which are important
1. Thixotropic: the fluid should be thixotropic, meaning it should gel within a few hours.
2. Gelling and de-gelling: The desired viscosity changes over the course of a few hours.

When the fracking slurry is mixed, it needs to be thin enough to make it easier to pump.
Then as it flows down the pipe, the fluid needs to gel to support the proppant and flush it deep into the fractures.

After that process, the gel has to break down so that it is possible to recover the fracking fluid but leave the proppant behind.
This requires a chemical process which produces then breaks the gel cross-linking at a predictable rate.
Guar+boron+proprietary chemicals can accomplish both of these goals at once.



ICE CRYSTAL GROWTH, GUAR GUM THICKENER:
Guar gum thickener retards ice crystal growth by slowing mass transfer across the solid/liquid interface.
Guar gum thickener shows good stability during freeze-thaw cycles.
Thus, Guar gum thickener is used in egg-free ice cream.

Guar gum thickener has synergistic effects with locust bean gum and sodium alginate.
May be synergistic with xanthan: together with xanthan gum, Guar gum thickener produces a thicker product (0.5% guar gum / 0.35% xanthan gum), which is used in applications such as soups, which do not require clear results.

Guar gum thickener is a hydrocolloid, hence is useful for making thick pastes without forming a gel, and for keeping water bound in a sauce or emulsion.
Guar gum thickener can be used for thickening cold and hot liquids, to make hot gels, light foams and as an emulsion stabilizer.
Guar gum thickener can be used for cottage cheeses, curds, yoghurt, sauces, soups and frozen desserts.
Guar gum thickener is also a good source of fiber with 80% soluble dietary fiber on a dry weight basis.



HOW IS GUAR GUM THICKENER MADE?
This might get a little technical, so bear with us.
Guar gum thickener powder comes from the cluster bean plant (guar) that’s mostly found in India.
The seeds of the tree are called guar beans and they are dehusked mechanically i.e., basically split into parts.
The shells (or unhusked guar split) are hydrated, milled, and refined to form a powder that is the gum itself.
While the remaining part eventually becomes a part of animal feed, ensuring minimal wastage (unrelated but interesting fact).



WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF GUAR GUM THICKENER?
Guar gum thickener is a stabilizer and thickener.
Guar gum thickener has incredibly high water-absorbing abilities, and so it can immediately thicken whatever it’s added to.
Even water.

This makes Guar gum thickener a fabulous ingredient for several uses.
Different sorts of Guar gum thickener are used in producing medicines, papers, textiles, cosmetics, food of course, and even explosives.
Imagine how versatile this seemingly simple powder is.

But today's focus is only going to be on how you can add the magic of Guar gum thickener to your recipes.
Let’s get into it.



GUAR GUM THICKENER VS. TARA GUM
Tara gum is part of the same chemical family as Guar gum thickener.
Both of them have a similar molecular structure known as galactomannans.
Tara has similar cold water solubility to Guar gum thickener.
Tara gum has very similar thickening characteristics to Guar gum thickener but has some advantages.



PRODUCTION AND TRADE OF GUAR GUM THICKENER:
The guar bean is principally grown in India, Pakistan, the United States, Australia and Africa.
India is the largest producer, accounting for nearly 80% of the world production.
In India, Rajasthan, Gujarat, and Haryana are the main producing regions.

The US has produced 4,600 to 14,000 tonnes of guar over the last 5 years.
Texas acreage since 1999 has fluctuated from about 7,000 to 50,000 acres.
The world production for Guar gum thickener and its derivatives is about 1.0 million tonnes.
Non-food Guar gum thickener accounts for about 40% of the total demand.



PROPERTIES OF GUAR GUM THICKENER:
*Chemical composition
Chemically, Guar gum thickener is an exo-polysaccharide composed of the sugars galactose and mannose.

The backbone is a linear chain of β 1,4-linked mannose residues to which galactose residues are 1,6-linked at every second mannose, forming short side-branches.
Guar gum thickener has the ability to withstand temperatures of 80 °C (176 °F) for five minutes.


*Solubility and viscosity
Guar gum thickener is more soluble than locust bean gum due to its extra galactose branch points.
Unlike locust bean gum, Guar gum thickener is not self-gelling.

Either borax or calcium can cross-link Guar gum thickener, causing it to gel.
In water, Guar gum thickener is nonionic and hydrocolloidal.
Guar gum thickener is not affected by ionic strength or pH, but will degrade at extreme pH and temperature (e.g. pH 3 at 50 °C).

Guar gum thickener remains stable in solution over pH range 5–7.
Strong acids cause hydrolysis and loss of viscosity and alkalies in strong concentration also tend to reduce viscosity.
Guar gum thickener is insoluble in most hydrocarbon solvents.

The viscosity attained is dependent on time, temperature, concentration, pH, rate of agitation and particle size of the powdered gum used.
The lower the temperature, the lower the rate at which viscosity increases, and the lower the final viscosity.
Above 80°, the final viscosity is slightly reduced.

Finer guar powders swell more rapidly than larger particle size coarse powdered gum.
Guar gum thickener shows a clear low shear plateau on the flow curve and is strongly shear-thinning.
The rheology of Guar gum thickener is typical for a random coil polymer.

Guar gum thickener does not show the very high low shear plateau viscosities seen with more rigid polymer chains such as xanthan gum.
Guar gum thickener is very thixotropic above 1% concentration, but below 0.3%, the thixotropy is slight.
Guar gum thickener shows viscosity synergy with xanthan gum.
Guar gum thickener and micellar casein mixtures can be slightly thixotropic if a biphase system forms.



MANUFACTURING PROCESS OF GUAR GUM THICKENER:
Depending upon the requirement of end product, various processing techniques are used.
The commercial production of Guar gum thickener normally uses roasting, differential attrition, sieving, and polishing.
Food-grade Guar gum thickener is manufactured in stages.

Guar split selection is important in this process.
The split is screened to clean it and then soaked to pre-hydrate Guar gum thickener in a double-cone mixer.
The prehydrating stage is very important because it determines the rate of hydration of the final product.

The soaked splits, which have reasonably high moisture content, are passed through a flaker.
The flaked guar split is ground and then dried.
The powder is screened through rotary screens to deliver the required particle size.

Oversize particles are either recycled to main ultra fine or reground in a separate regrind plant, according to the viscosity requirement.
This stage helps to reduce the load at the grinder.
The soaked splits are difficult to grind.

Direct grinding of those generates more heat in the grinder, which is not desired in the process, as it reduces the hydration of the product.
Through the heating, grinding, and polishing process, the husk is separated from the endosperm halves and the refined guar split is obtained.
Through the further grinding process, the refined guar split is then treated and converted into powder.

The split manufacturing process yields husk and germ called “guar meal”, widely sold in the international market as cattle feed.
It is high in protein and contains oil and albuminoids, about 50% in germ and about 25% in husks.
The quality of the food-grade Guar gum thickener is defined from its particle size, rate of hydration, and microbial content.

Manufacturers define different grades and qualities of Guar gum thickener by the particle size, the viscosity generated with a given concentration, and the rate at which that viscosity develops.
Coarse-mesh Guar gum thickeners will typically, but not always, develop viscosity more slowly.

They may achieve a reasonably high viscosity, but will take longer to achieve.
On the other hand, they will disperse better than fine-mesh, all conditions being equal.
A finer mesh, such as a 200 mesh, requires more effort to dissolve.
Modified forms of Guar gum thickener are available commercially, including enzyme-modified, cationic and hydropropyl guar.

GUM ARABIC
Gum arabic (gum acacia, gum sudani, Senegal gum and by other names) is a natural gum originally consisting of the hardened sap of two species of the Acacia tree, Senegalia senegal and Vachellia seyal.


CAS Number: 9000-01-5
EC Number: 232-519-5
Molecular Formula: C12H36


Gum arabic is a complex mixture of glycoproteins and polysaccharides, predominantly polymers of arabinose and galactose.
Gum arabic is a key ingredient in traditional lithography and is used in printing, paints, glues, cosmetics, and various industrial applications, including viscosity control in inks and in textile industries, though less expensive materials compete with it for many of these roles.


Gum arabic was defined by the 31st Codex Committee for Food Additives, held at The Hague from 19 to 23 March 1999, as the dried exudate from the trunks and branches of Acacia senegal or Vachellia (Acacia) seyal in the family Fabaceae (Leguminosae).
Gum arabic is soluble in water, edible, and used primarily in the food industry and soft-drink industry as a stabilizer, with E number E414 (I414 in the US).

Gum arabic's mixture of polysaccharides and glycoproteins gives it the properties of a glue and binder that is edible by humans.
Other substances have replaced it where toxicity is not an issue, as the proportions of the various chemicals in gum arabic vary widely and make it unpredictable.


Gum Arabic remains an important ingredient in soft drink syrup and "hard" gummy candies such as gumdrops, and marshmallows.
Gum Arabic, also known as acacia gum, is a natural gum obtained from the sap of Acacia senegal and Acacia seyal trees.
Gum arabic is a complex mixture of polysaccharides and glycoproteins that are soluble in water.


Gum arabic (gum acacia, gum sudani, Senegal gum and by other names) is a natural gum originally consisting of the hardened sap of two species of the Acacia tree, Senegalia senegal and Vachellia seyal.
However, the term "gum arabic" does not actually indicate a particular botanical source.


The gum is harvested commercially from wild trees, mostly in Sudan (about 70% of the global supply) and throughout the Sahel, from Senegal to Somalia.
The name "gum Arabic" (al-samgh al-'arabi) was used in the Middle East at least as early as the 9th century.
Gum arabic first found its way to Europe via Arabic ports, and so retained its name.


Gum arabic (GA) is one of the most abundant polysaccharides in nature, and has excellent water solubility and biocompatibility paired with low cost.
If little water is used, after evaporation, the acacia gum functions as a true binder in a paint film, increasing luminosity and helping prevent the colors from lightening.


Gum arabic allows more subtle control over washes, because it facilitates the dispersion of the pigment particles.
In addition, acacia gum slows evaporation of water, giving slightly longer working time.
The addition of a little gum arabic to watercolor pigment and water allows for easier lifting of pigment from paper, thus can be a useful tool when lifting out color when painting in watercolor.


Gum arabic is the gum that is exuded from certain trees, such as the Acacia senegal tree.
Gum arabic's a source of dietary fiber that can dissolve in water.
Don't confuse gum arabic with Acacia rigidula, acai, or cassie absolute (Acacia farnesiana).


These are different plants with different effects.
Gum arabic can be processed in different ways.
Crude gum, for example, may be kibbled, or hammered into small bits.


This form is a popular consumer product and is sold worldwide.
Gum arabic may be further pulverized into a powder resembling flour, which is sold for use in confections, such as for coating the outside of candies.
Gum arabic also may be processed into a spray-dried form, in which kibbled gum is dissolved in hot water and impurities are filtered out.


The liquid is then sprayed into a stream of hot air, evaporating the water and leaving the powdered gum at the bottom of the dryer.
Gum arabic E code is E414.
Gum Arabic is insoluble in oils and many organic solvents and soluble in aqueous ethanol solutions.


Gum Arabic; In the beverage industry, the use of gum arabic is very useful in situations such as stabilizing agent, thickening agent, structure correcting agent, emulsifier and filmmaker remain expensive.
Gum arabic is a chemically carbohydrate polymer.


The energy value of the Gum arabic is very low.
In more detail, Gum arabic is the arabic complex and is a variable mixture of arabinogalactic oligosaccharides, polysaccharides and glycoproteins.
Gum arabic is a kind of natural hydrocolloid made of resin which produced in the Arabian region of Africa.


After drying, Arabic gum is very easy to crumble and deliquate, and will turn into a sticky but odorless colloid after being placed in water.

Gum arabic, also sometimes called acacia gum or acacia powder, is a fibrous product made from the natural hardened sap of two types of wild Acacia trees.
Around the world, Gum arabic goes by many names, including acacia gum, arabic gum, acacia powder, Senegal gum, Indian gum and others.
Acacia senegal (L.), a tree in the Leguminosae (Fabaceae) plant family, is most commonly used to make Gum arabic products.


Vachellia (Acacia) is another species that produces a dried gum from its trunk and branches.
These trees grow most abundantly in Sudan, where about 50 percent of the world’s Gum arabic is now produced, but are also found in other parts of Africa, such as Kenya, Mali, Niger, Nigeria and Senegal.


What’s interesting about acacia trees is that they produce the most Gum arabic when they experience “adverse conditions,” such as poor soil, drought or high heat.
This actually damages the trees to some degree but causes an increase in the production of arabic gum.


Today, there are many industrial and food-related uses for Gum arabic.
For example, gelatin, modified starch, Gum arabic and pectin are the main types of gums used in many sugary/confectionery products.

The variety of names is due to the different places, and types of Acacias, from where the Gum Arabic can be extracted.
Many of these trees behave the same and have similar appearance, differing only in some technical characters.
These Acacias are spiny shrubs or small trees that prefer sandy or sterile regions with a dry climate.


This means that most Acacias can be found in North Africa, particularly in Sudan, and to a lesser degree in the Arabian Peninsula, India, and Australia.
During times of drought, the bark of these trees splits, exuding a sap that dries in small droplets or “tears.”
The colour of these oval “tears” can range from white to shades of orange-red.


They are usually harvested in December, and it usually takes about five weeks.
The masses of gum are then collected while they are still stuck to the tree or after they have fallen on the ground.
Historically, these gum pieces were packed in baskets and very large sacks of tanned leather and then taken on camels and bullocks to trading centers in North Africa.


Nowadays, commercial acacia gum is derived by tapping trees periodically and collecting the sap semi-mechanically.
There are at least three different grades of Gum Arabic available commercially and their quality is distinguished by the colour and character of the collected “tears”.


Even though the structure of Gum Arabic is not completely known, it is basically composed of a high molecular weight polysaccharide that contains residues of neutral sugars and acids.
This mixture of polysaccharides and glycoproteins gives it the properties of a glue and binder that is edible by humans.

During the time of the gum harvest, the denizens of the desert are said to live almost entirely on it, and it has been proved that 6 oz is sufficient to support an adult for 24 hours.


Gum arabic is rumored that the Bushman Hottentots have been known in times of scarcity to support themselves on it for days.
In addition, the food industry has been using Gum Arabic as a demulcent, stabilizer and flavour fixative, for years.
Gum Arabic is an important ingredient in chocolates (M&Ms, etc.), and “hard” gummy candies such as gumdrops and marshmallows.


Gum Arabic is also used as an emulsifier and a thickening agent in icing, fillings, chewing gum and other confectionery treats.
More generally, Gum Arabic gives body and texture to processed food products.
Even wine makers have used Gum arabic as a wine fining agent.


Probably the most interesting use for Gum arabic is as part of soft drink syrups.
It binds the sugar to the drink and avoids Gum Arabic from crystallizing on the bottom.
Because Gum Arabic also reduces the surface tension of liquids, it is usually responsible for increased foaming in carbonated beverages.


This can be exploited in the Diet Coke and Mentos Eruption, where a Mentos mint is thrown into a bottle of Diet Coke (or Pepsi) which causes the beverage to spray out of its container.
It really does help that Gum arabic is not toxic!


-Food uses of Gum arabic:
Gum arabic is used in the food industry as a stabiliser, emulsifying agent, and thickening agent in icing, fillings, soft candy, chewing gum, and other confectionery, and to bind the sweeteners and flavourings in soft drinks.
A solution of sugar and gum arabic in water, gomme syrup, is sometimes used in cocktails to prevent the sugar from crystallising and provide a smooth texture.

Gum arabic is a complex polysaccharide and soluble dietary fibre that is generally recognized as safe for human consumption.
An indication of harmless flatulence occurs in some people taking large doses of 30 g (1 oz) or more per day.
Gum arabic is not degraded in the intestine, but fermented in the colon under the influence of microorganisms; it is a prebiotic (as distinct from a probiotic).


-Painting and art uses of Gum Arabic:
Gum arabic is used as a binder for watercolor painting because it dissolves easily in water.
Pigment of any color is suspended within the acacia gum in varying amounts, resulting in watercolor paint.
Water acts as a vehicle or a diluent to thin the watercolor paint and helps to transfer the paint to a surface such as paper.
When all moisture evaporates, Gum arabic typically does not bind the pigment to the paper surface, but is totally absorbed by deeper layers.


-Ceramics uses of Gum arabic:
Gum arabic has a long history as additives to ceramic glazes.
Gum arabic acts as a binder, helping the glaze adhere to the clay before it is fired, thereby minimising damage by handling during the manufacture of the piece.

As a secondary effect, Gum Arabic also acts as a deflocculant, increasing the fluidity of the glaze mixture, but also making it more likely to sediment out into a hard cake if not used for a while.
The gum is normally made up into a solution in hot water (typically 10–25 g/L; ¼ to ½ oz per pint), and then added to the glaze solution after any ball milling in concentrations from 0.02% to 3.0% of gum arabic to the dry weight of the glaze.

On firing, Gum Arabic burns out at a low temperature, leaving no residues in the glaze.
More recently, particularly in commercial manufacturing, gum arabic is often replaced by more refined and consistent alternatives, such as carboxymethyl cellulose.


-Photography uses of Gum Arabic:
The historical photography process of gum bichromate photography uses gum arabic mixed with ammonium or potassium dichromate and pigment to create a coloured photographic emulsion that becomes relatively insoluble in water upon exposure to ultraviolet light.
In the final print, the acacia gum permanently binds the pigments onto the paper.


-Food Industry uses of Gum Arabic:
In the food sector, Gum arabic functions as a thickener, emulsifier and stabilizer similar to xanthan gum.
Gum Arabic is seen in many items such as icings, fillings for candy that’s soft plus chewing gums.

Gum Arabic serves as a gluten-free binder and prebiotic ingredient across some prepackaged products.
Gum arabic has an array of uses including being used like Gomme syrup inside beverages where it helps stop sugar from crystallizing while giving off smooth texture at the same time.


-Printmaking uses of Gum Arabic:
Gum arabic is also used to protect and etch an image in lithographic processes, both from traditional stones and aluminum plates.
In lithography, Gum Arabic by itself may be used to etch very light tones, such as those made with a number-five crayon.

Phosphoric, nitric, or tannic acid is added in varying concentrations to the Gum arabic to etch the darker tones up to dark blacks.
The etching process creates a Gum Arabic adsorb layer within the matrix that attracts water, ensuring that the oil-based ink does not stick to those areas.
Gum arabic is also essential to what is sometimes called paper lithography, printing from an image created by a laser printer or photocopier.


-Art and Crafts uses of Gum Arabic:
Gum arabic, or arabic gum, has a long tradition in art and craft applications.
Gum arabic is utilized as an emulsion when painting with watercolors to allow for greater control over the washes while extending the workability period.
In ceramic crafting glazes are enhanced by mixing Gum arabic into hot water prior to being added to it, which creates a more efficient solution.


-Pharmaceutical and Cosmetic Applications of Gum Arabic:
Gum arabic is widely used for its stability, emulsifying powers and thickening abilities in pharmaceuticals as well as cosmetics.
Gum arabic can also be found employed in biomedical fields where it helps control drug delivery too.
In the beauty industry, glycerin works to stabilize creams and shampoos giving them a pleasant silky finish while lotions benefit from added smoothness with facial masks or face powders taking advantage of Arabic gum's adhesive properties.



ECONOMIC AND CULTURAL SIGNIFICANCE OF GUM ARABIC:
Gum Arabic forms an important part of the economic revenues for a number of African nations.
Sudan, the largest exporter of gum arabic on the continent and in the world, exported nearly 50,000 metric tons of this plant-based product in 2012 alone.
In 2011, the country earned a staggering revenue of $81.8 million by selling 45,633 metric tons of gum arabic, a huge jump from the $23.8 million earned the previous year from an export of 18,202 tons of gum arabic.
China, the U.S.A., India, and the U.K. serve as the chief markets for Sudan’s gum arabic exports.



HERE ARE SOME OF THE FUNCTIONALITIES AND USES OF GUM ARABIC:
-Emulsifier and Stabilizer:
Gum Arabic has excellent emulsifying properties, which means it can help mix two or more typically immiscible substances, such as oil and water.
Gum arabic is often used in the food and beverage industry to stabilize emulsions, preventing separation and enhancing the texture and mouthfeel of products like soft drinks, syrups, and ice creams.


-Thickening and Binding Agent:
Gum arabic acts as a thickener in food and pharmaceutical applications.
Gum Arabic forms a viscous solution when mixed with water, creating a gel-like consistency.
Gum arabic is commonly used in the production of candies, confectionery, and dessert toppings to provide the desired texture.
Gum arabic can also act as a binding agent, helping ingredients stick together in products like tablets and powders.


-Encapsulation:
Gum Arabic is used in encapsulation processes to create microcapsules that can protect sensitive ingredients such as flavors, fragrances, and pharmaceuticals.
These microcapsules help to stabilize and control the release of the encapsulated substances.


-Dietary Fiber:
Gum Arabic is a source of dietary fiber and can be used to increase the fiber content in food products.
Gum arabic is considered a prebiotic fiber, which means it can serve as a food source for beneficial gut bacteria.


-Film-Forming Agent:

WHAT TYPE OF ORGANIC MOLECULE IS GUM ARABIC?
Gum arabic is made of a mixture of glycoproteins, a class of proteins that have carbohydrate groups attached to the polypeptide chain, and polysaccharides, a carbohydrate whose molecules consist of a number of sugar molecules bonded together.
Gum arabic also includes oligosaccharides, another type of carbohydrate.

Additionally, gums collected from acacia trees are a source of natural sugar compounds called arabinose and ribose, which were some of the first concentrated sugars to be derived from plants/trees.
The exact chemical composition of Gum arabic varies from product to product, depending on its source and the climate/soil conditions in which it was grown.



HEALTH BENEFITS OF GUM ARABIC:
*Gum arabic crystals
Gum arabic is beneficial for a variety of health issues, having prebiotic properties and offering dietary fiber.
Research shows that Gum Arabic can be used to treat medical conditions such as sickle cell anemia (especially helpful for those with the disorder), rheumatoid arthritis, metabolic disorders, periodontitis and gastrointestinal problems to kidney diseases.

It's ability to act both as a source of nourishment while also promoting positive microorganisms makes Gum arabic ideal when looking for ways to improve your overall wellbeing.

*Prebiotic Effects
Gum arabic is a complex carbohydrate that has been shown to act as an effective prebiotic, helping to nourish beneficial bacteria in the gut and stimulating their growth.

This leads to greater production of short-chain fatty acids, which come with various health benefits including improved gastrointestinal function and immune system support.
Overall well-being can also be seen from consuming this particular type of prebiotic due to its potential role in contributing towards better digestion on a whole.

Examples such as Inulin, Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) and Galactooligosaccharides (GOS), all join Gum Arabic when referring to substances aiding healthy microbe populations within our bodies for increased general wellness effects!

*Disease Management
For improved outcomes when using gum arabic therapeutically, it is recommended to focus on nanofomulation-based drug delivery systems paired with appropriately selected doses relative to each individual disease being treated.

Also suggested is that extracting active compounds from this material can offer additional advantages in management of ailments, which drives research efforts looking at its possible medicinal uses over time.

Gum arabic presents itself notably promising due to many studies showing positive results toward alleviating painful symptoms across multiple illnesses yet more knowledge about how exactly it works needs to be acquired through investigation before any definitive conclusions are drawn or widespread applications made available medically speaking by governing bodies worldwide making this material worthy under close consideration while also excitingly encouraging ongoing development initiatives too!



CHEMICAL AND MOLECULAR STRUCTURE OF GUM ARABIC:
Gum arabic consists mainly of calcium, magnesium and potassium salts which yield arabinose, galactose, rhamnose, and glucuronic acid after hydrolysis.
Chemical compositions of Gum Arabic may vary slightly with the source, climate, season, and age of the tree.
Acacia Senegal and Acacia Seyal both contain the same carbohydrate residues.

However, Acacia Seyal gum has lower rhamnose and glucuronic acid contents, and higher arabinose and glucuronic acid contents than the gum derived from Acacia Senegal.
The amino acid compositions are similar in both gums, with hydroxyproline and serine being the major constituents.

Both gums from the Acacia and Acacia Seyal display similar features regarding high-weight molecular mass distributions.
However, the molecular mass of gum from Acacia Seyal is higher than the gum of Acacia Senegal, with an average molecular mass of 380,000 and 850,000, respectively.



PROPERTIES OF GUM ARABIC:
Gum arabic readily dissolves in water to give clear solutions ranging in colour from very pale yellow to orange-brown and with a pH of ~ 4.5.
The highly branched structure of Acacia Senegal gum gives rise to compact molecules with a relatively small hydrodynamic volume and as a consequence gum solutions only become viscous at high concentrations.
A comparison of the viscosity of the gum with xanthan gum and sodium carboxymethylcellulose, which are common thickening agents.

It is seen that even 30% gum arabic solutions have a lower viscosity than 1% xanthan gum and sodium carboxymethylcellulose at low shear rates.
In addition, while gum arabic is Newtonian in behaviour with its viscosity being shear rate independent, both xanthan gum and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose display non-Newtonian shear thinning characteristics.



HEALTH BENEFITS OF GUM ARABIC:
Gum arabic is a rich source of dietary fibers and in addition to its widespread use in food and pharmaceutical industries as a safe thickener, emulsifier, and stabilizer, it also possesses a broad range of health benefits that have been evidently proved through several in vitro and in vivo studies.

Gum arabic is not degraded in the stomach, but fermented in the large intestine into a number of short chain fatty acids.
Gum Arabic is regarded as a prebiotic that enhances the growth and proliferation of the beneficial intestinal microbiota and therefore its intake is associated with many useful health effects.

These health benefits include:
*Improved absorption of calcium from the gastrointestinal tract
*Anti-diabetic
*Anti-obesity (gum arabic lowers the body mass index and body fat percentage)
*Lipid lowering potential (gum arabic decreases total cholesterol, LDL, and triglyceride)
*Antioxidant activities
*Kidney and liver support
*Immune function via modulating the release of some inflammatory mediators
*Prebiotic improving the intestinal barrier function, preventing colon cancer, and alleviating symptoms of irritable bowel diseases



ACACIA TREES AND GUM ARABIC PRODUCTION:
Gum arabic, also known as acacia gum and sourced from Acacia Senegal and Acacia Seyal trees, has been an important commodity since ancient times.
Gum arabic occurs as a sticky liquid that oozes from the stems and branches of acacia trees (Acacia senegal and A. seyal) which grow across the Sahelian belt of Africa, principally Sudan.

Gum arabic is obtained through a process of tapping that carefully removes sections of bark to prevent damage being done to the tree itself.
This produces sticky nodules, Gum Arabic, which are then collected manually based on coloration or size.
The molecular mass for gum arabic produced by each species differs somewhat. With average values at 240 kDa (Acacia seyal) and 580 kDa (Acaasia senegal).

Differences can be observed in their compositions where Acaicia Seyal contains lower concentrations of rhamnose and glucuronic acid compared to its counterpart’s higher levels of arabinse glucose content.
Overall these qualities continue making this substance highly sought after internationally – allowing certain African countries significant revenues generated via exports.



CHEMICAL COMPOSITION OF GUM ARABIC:
The different molecular weights of Gum arabic are directly related to its composition.
Gum arabic makeup includes minerals such as calcium and magnesium salts along with a biopolymer made up of arabinose and galactose monosaccharides - all depending upon factors like tree species or climate/season.
Owing to Gum arabic structure offering potential health benefits, it is employed for various functions due to its versatility.



DOES GUM ARABIC DISSOLVED IN WATER?
Gum arabic contains galactose, arabinose, glucuronic acid, and rhamnose.
In hot and cold water, gum arabic is fully soluble, giving a viscous solution.
Heating up a gum arabic solution to the boiling point, however, will make it darken and change its adhesion properties.



WHY IS IT CALLED GUM ARABIC?
Gum arabic is a complex mixture of glycoproteins and polysaccharides.
This is the original source of ribose and arabinose sugars, both of which have been first found and derived from it, and are also named after it.
This gum arabic is primarily used as a stabiliser in the food industry.



WHICH BIOMOLECULE IS GUM ARABIC?
Gum Arabic is a normal branched-chain multi-functional hydrocolloid with a complex of calcium, magnesium, and potassium that is strongly neutral or mildly acidic, arabinogalactan proteins.



PRODUCTION OF GUM ARABIC:
While Gum arabic has been harvested in Arabia and West Asia since antiquity, sub-Saharan acacia gum has a long history as a prized export.
The gum exported came from the band of acacia trees that once covered much of the Sahel region, the southern littoral of the Sahara Desert that runs from the Atlantic Ocean to the Red Sea.

Today, the main populations of gum-producing Acacia species are found in Mauritania, Senegal, Mali, Burkina Faso, Niger, Nigeria, Chad, Cameroon, Sudan, Eritrea, Somalia, Ethiopia, Kenya, and Tanzania.
Acacia is tapped for gum by stripping bits off the bark, from which gum then exudes.

Traditionally harvested by seminomadic desert pastoralists in the course of their transhumance cycle, acacia gum remains a main export of several African nations, including Mauritania, Niger, Chad, and Sudan.
Total world gum arabic exports were estimated in 2019 at 160,000 tonnes, having recovered from 1987 to 1989 and 2003–2005 crises caused by the destruction of trees by the desert locust



COMPOSITION OF GUM ARABIC:
Arabinogalactan is a biopolymer consisting of arabinose and galactose monosaccharides.
It is a major component of many plant gums, including Gum arabic.
8-5' Noncyclic diferulic acid has been identified as covalently linked to carbohydrate moieties of the arabinogalactan-protein fraction.



HISTORY OF GUM ARABIC:
POLITICAL ASPECTS OF GUM ARABIC:
WEST AFRICA:
In 1445, Prince Henry the Navigator set up a trading post on Arguin Island (off the coast of modern Mauritania), which acquired Gum arabic and slaves for Portugal.

With the merger of the Portuguese and Spanish crowns in 1580, the Spaniards became the dominant influence along the coast.
In 1638, however, they were replaced by the Dutch, who were the first to begin exploiting the Gum arabic trade.
Produced by the acacia trees of Trarza and Brakna, this Gum Arabic was considered superior to that previously obtained in Arabia.
By 1678, the French had driven out the Dutch and established a permanent settlement at Saint Louis at the mouth of the Senegal River.

Gum Arabic came to play an essential role in textile printing and therefore in pre-industrial economies of France, Great Britain and other European countries.
Throughout the 18th century, their competition over the commodity was so fierce, that some have referred to it as the gum wars.

For much of the 18th and 19th centuries, gum arabic was the major export from French and British trading colonies in modern Senegal and Mauritania.
West Africa had become the sole supplier of world Gum arabic by the 18th century, and its export at the French colony of Saint-Louis doubled in the decade of 1830 alone.

A threat to bypass Saint-Louis and taxes by sending gum to the British traders at Portendick, eventually brought the Emirate of Trarza into direct conflict with the French.
In the 1820s, the French launched the Franco-Trarzan War of 1825.

The new emir, Muhammad al Habib, had signed an agreement with the Waalo Kingdom, directly to the south of the river.
In return for an end to raids in Waalo territory, the emir took the heiress of Waalo as a bride.
The prospect that Trarza might inherit control of both banks of the Senegal struck at the security of French traders, and the French responded by sending a large expeditionary force that crushed Muhammad's army.

The war incited the French to expand to the north of the Senegal River for the first time, heralding French direct involvement in the interior of West Africa.
Africa continued to export gum arabic in large quantities—from the Sahel areas of French West Africa (modern Senegal, Mauritania, Mali, Burkina Faso, and Niger) and French Equatorial Africa (modern Chad) as well as British-administered Sudan, until these nations gained their independence in 1959–61.

SUDAN:
Since the 1950s, the global supply of gum arabic has been dominated by Sudan.
In the early 2020s, about 70% of the global supply has been sourced from Sudan, with approximately 5 million Sudanese people (more than 10 percent of a country's population) being directly or indirectly dependent on gum arabic for their livelihoods.

After market reforms in 2019, official figures showed that Sudan's exports of gum arabic were at about 60,000 tonnes in 2022, but exact numbers are difficult to ascertain because some production is in regions that are hard to access.
Before the reforms, the production of gum arabic was heavily dominated by the Sudanese government and in some periods there were attempts of using its importance to the global market as a leverage against other countries.

Since the 2023 Sudan conflict, the export of gum arabic has been interrupted, causing a crash in its price in Sudan because of a reduced ability to export the product, whereas international companies that rely on it are attempting to diversity the supply chain of gum arabic and find alternative ingredients that can be used as a replacement.



SYMBOLIC VALU OF GUM ARABIC:
In the works of English playwright William Shakespeare, Dutch poet Jacob Cats and other European poets of the 13th to 17th centuries, gum arabic represented the "noble Orient".
In the Sahel, Gum Arabic is a symbol of the purity of youth.



HARVESTING AND PROCESSING OF GUM ARABIC:
Gum arabic is harvested at the end of the rainy season in sub-Sarahan Africa, being collected from wild mature A. senegal and A. seyal trees that are usually between 5 and 25 years old.
Incisions are introduced in the stems and branches of the trees, and the surrounding bark is stripped.
Gum Arabic seeps into the incisions within several weeks.

As Gum Arabic dries upon exposure to air, it forms a nodule.
Every two to four weeks, the nodules are removed from the trees and dried completely in the sun.
Once dried, they are visually inspected and sorted by size.
At this stage, Gum arabic may be sold as a crude (unprocessed) substance, or it may be refined and later sold as processed gum arabic.



ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF GUM ARABIC:
Most gum arabic used worldwide comes from A. senegal, within the so-called “gum belt” of Africa’s Sahel, the semiarid region of western and north-central Africa that extends from Senegal eastward to Sudan.
This type of gum arabic, sometimes referred to as hashab gum, is hard and of high quality.

Talha gum from A. seyal, on the other hand, is of lower quality and friable (brittle).
Much of the crude gum produced in these regions is exported to France, Germany, India, the United States, and the United Kingdom.
Given its versatility and worldwide use, gum arabic is considered an important component of economic development for countries within the Sahel.

In particular, during Gum arabic harvesting season, it provides work opportunities for individuals in local communities.
Moreover, exports of Gum arabic have risen steadily since the 1990s.
Crude and semi-processed gum exports, for example, amounted to about 35,000 tons each year between 1992 and 1994, and in 2017–19 this figure was about 80,000 tons annually.

Over that same period of time, export of processed gum arabic also expanded significantly.
Export prices likewise have increased steadily since the 1990s, filling an important role in the economic growth of countries that produce gum arabic.
Because there are few satisfactory substitutes for gum arabic, it has been used by governments of producing states for bargaining when faced with sanctions.

Such was the case in the 1990s and 2000s, when Sudan faced sanctions for supporting terrorism.
Political unrest in the countries that produce gum arabic may further disrupt harvest and exportation, leading to lost revenue for producers and limited supply for consumers.

In 2023, war between the Sudanese army and a paramilitary group resulted in the deaths of thousands and the displacement of millions.
The conflict and loss of life caused the price of Sudanese gum arabic to fall by 60 percent.
Such unreliability in the supply chain has given impetus to the development of a viable replacement for gum arabic.



HEALTH BENEFITS OF GUM ARABIC:
Health Benefits of Gum Arabic or Gum Acacia
While Gum arabic has been investigated extensively for its properties as a hydrocolloid with several food applications, it has also been the subject of more recent investigation for its ability to improve human health.

Because Gum Arabic can reach the large intestine and resist digestion in the small intestine, it can be categorized as a non-digestible carbohydrate or dietary fiber.
Gum Arabic can also be categorized as a prebiotic.

In the large intestine, gum Arabic is fermented by bacteria that produce short-chain fatty acids (SCFA), particularly propionic acid, as by-products of fermentation that are associated with significant improvements to human health.

*Bifidogenic:
Fermentation of Gum Arabic has shown to selectively increase the proportions of lactic acid-producing bacteria and bifidobacteria in study subjects.
Gum arabic also augments the water content of stools and increases stool output.
Further, evidence suggests that gum arabic acts as a prebiotic as doses of 10g/day, and can be consumed with at even higher daily doses without any adverse gastrointestinal issues.

Gum Arabic is known to feed several different strains of indigenous bifidobacterium including B. longum, and showed that it could increase Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis significantly better than both inulin and glucose.

*Prebiotic:
Gum Arabic can selectively raise the proportions of lactic acid bacteria and bifidobacteria in healthy subjects.
Gum arabic is fermented slowly, with digestibility around 95%.
Gum Arabic also increases stool output by augmenting the water content of stools.

It is well tolerated at high daily doses and has shown that Gum arabic can be consumed without any adverse intestinal events.
Evidence demonstrates that Gum arabic acts as a prebiotic at a dose of 10 g/day.

*SCFAs:
Other investigations have shown that bacterial fermentation with Gum Arabic produced more SCFAs such as butyrate and propionate in vitro and in vivo than other well-known prebiotics such as pectin, inulin, and alginate.
This is unequivocal evidence that gum arabic is a non-digestible, prebiotic polysaccharide.

*Anti-Diabetic:
Other studies found that microbial SCFA production (and viscosity) was significantly increased after the addition of gum arabic to foods, and further suggested that it also reduced postprandial glycemic response having a homeostatic effect on diabetes via increased acetic acid production.
Therefore, the simple addition of gum arabic improved foods metabolically for human use.

*Nephroprotective:
Gum Arabic increases creatinine clearance, enhances renal excretion of antidiuretic hormones, decreases plasma phosphate concentration, enhances renal secretion of antidiuretic hormone, and is used as a treatment for chronic and end-stage renal disease in Middle Eastern countries.
The effects of Gum Arabic on plasma phosphate concentration, blood pressure, and proteinuria may prove beneficial in chronic renal failure (CRF) and diabetic nephropathy.

Gum arabic moderately reduces histological and biochemical markers after acute gentamycin nephrotoxicity.
Gum Arabic may also serve as a treatment for a renal disease as well due to its ability to trap bile salts in conjunction with its relatively high effect on butyrate production which has shown to suppress the production of TGF-beta1 cytokines.

*Anti-carcinogenic:
Angiogenins are angiogenetic factors upregulated by tumor cells, and are involved in the vascularization and growth of tumors.
Angiogenins are upregulated in cancer cells by numerous tissues that include colon, stomach, liver, pancreas, uterus, breast, ovary, prostate, bladder, kidney, and brain.

Angiogenins are also found up-regulated in leukemia, osteosarcoma, lymphoma, melanoma, and Wilms tumor.
According to study, Gum arabic produced a “profound inhibitory effect on angiogenin suppression.

*Anti-Obesigenic:
Gum Arabic significantly reduced the BMI and body fat percentage in a two-arm randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind trial of healthy adult females.
Authors of the study suggest that Gum Arabic should be investigated further as a treatment for obesity.
However, Gum Arabic was noted that common side effects included preliminary bloating and diarrhea.

*Lower Cholesterol:
In other studies, Gum Arabic + apple fiber were found to lead to a significant reduction of total serum cholesterol concentration, especially the LDL fractions in men with high cholesterol.

*Ulcerative Colitis:
Gum arabic may serve as a treatment for ulcerative colitis due to its ability to increase the SCFAs butyrate production and its trophic effects on the gut membrane, as well as its ability to reduce the duration and incidence of diarrhea



COMMON FOOD APPLICATIONS OF GUM ARABIC:
Here’s a fun fact:
When the US imposed sanctions on Sudan over the government’s actions in Darfur in 2000, it stopped all imports except one: Gum Arabic.
The government feared that stopping the imports on gum arabic would have too severe an impact on the US food industry.
Gum Arabic is one of the most ubiquitous ingredients in consumer products— ranging from Coca-Cola to shoe polish, to pharmaceuticals and confectionaries.

*Confectionary Applications:
The primary application of gum arabic is in the confectionery industry, used in a variety of products including gums, pastilles, marshmallows, and toffees.
Traditional wine gums also incorporated gum arabic at high concentrations and added wine for flavor.

*Beverages:
Gum arabic is stable in acid conditions.
For this reason, gum arabic is often used as an emulsifier in the production of concentrated flavor oils, such as those found in soft drinks.
Gum Arabic inhibits the coalescence of oil droplets, keeping emulsions stable for up to a year.

*Dietary Fiber Fortification:
In regulatory terms, dietary fiber refers to carbohydrate polymers which are neither digested nor absorbed in the small intestine, with polymerization of above three.

In other words, monosaccharides and disaccharides are inherently excluded from meeting requirements of the definition.
Gum arabic meets the requirements from a scientific point of view and has shown beneficial physiological effects.
Utilizing gum arabic in place of other ingredients in commercial recipes can help decrease net carbs in products and improve nutritional value.



OBJECTIVE, ORIGIN AND SCOPE OF APPLICATION OF GUM ARABIC:
Gum arabic is a gummy exudation which hardens in air and flows naturally or through cuts made in tree trunks and branches of the L. Acacia senegal L. Willdenow and other African Acacia species.
Gum arabic is composed of spherical tear drop-shaped globules, or sometimes irregular oval shapes with a diameter of 1-3 cm.
Gum arabic exists in powder form or in colloidal solution.

Gum arabic is used to improve the stability of bottled wine.
Gum arabic is composed of a polysaccharide rich in galactose and arabinose along with a small protein fraction which gives its stabilizing power with respect to the precipitation of coloring substances and iron or copper breakdown.
There are limits imposed on the quantity of gum arabic used in wine.



GEOGRAPHIC DISTRIBUTION OF GUM ARABIC:
Gum Arabic is harvested from acacia trees growing throughout the Sahel eco-region (a transition zone between the northern Sahara Desert and the southern belt of savanna).
This area is seen stretching all the way from Senegal in West Africa to Somalia in East Africa, including the African countries of Eritrea, Chad, Mali, Burkina Faso, Mauritania, Cameroon, Kenya, Niger and Nigeria and Sudan.
However, most of the production of Acacia, nearly 80% of the global total, is concentrated in Sudan.



CULTIVATION AND PRODUCTION OF GUM ARABIC:
The hardened sap of the acacia plant is collected during the middle of the rainy season (usually in July) by cutting holes into the bark of the Acacia senegal and tapping its sap, which is often known as Senegal gum.
In the case of Acacia seyal, the other species of Acacia from which Seyal gum is collected, collection is sourced from the natural exudation of the plant.

This extracted raw gum arabic is subsequently processed, and is then ready to be exported by the beginning of the dry season (usually in November).
Gum arabic exports form a major source of income for many African countries, especially Sudan, Niger, Chad, and Mauritania.
As per estimates from 2007, 95% of the world’s gum arabic exports were from three countries.
These were Sudan, Nigeria and Chad, and, in 2008, 60,000 metric tons of this plant-based product was exported from the African continent alone.
